Jaipur, Aug 12 (SocialNews.XYZ) Expressing grief over the rising cases of suicide in Rajasthan's Kota, the coaching hub, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Saturday expressed concern over the matter.

In a programme organised at the Agricultural Research Center in the Pink City, he said: "Twenty children committed suicide in eight months."

He said, "I myself wanted to become a doctor in my childhood, used to study till 2-3 in the night, but did not succeed.

"However, I did not lose courage... I changed my path, became a social worker, entered politics and today I am in front of you."

He suggested that family should not pressurise children.

"Let them be who they want to be. Everyone has to chose as to what one has to do and what one has to become. I never thought that I would become the CM..I would become a Union Minister but I got all the posts. There is so much pressure on the children that it is a serious condition," he added.
