- Interactions and discussions with cross-sections of people through panels headed by renowned politicians, political experts and management gurus. This can be done by setting up dedicated panels, each concentrating on their own specific issues and appointing leaders with a thorough understanding of the issues as their heads like: a women’s panel headed by a renowned lady politician to address women’s issues, a youth panel headed by a young parliamentarian to address problems of youth, an agriculture panel headed by a recognized farmer turned politician to address problems of farmers, a student panel headed by a well-known student leader to address issues of students, a panel to address the problems of industrial workers, laborers and all other political and social related matters.
