New Delhi, Feb 3: With the examination season drawing closer, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday invited students, parents, and teachers to watch the upcoming episode of Pariksha Pe Charcha (PPC) on February 6, promising meaningful conversations and a celebration of the energy and aspirations of India’s youth.
Reaffirming his connect with students, the Prime Minister interacted this year with Exam Warriors across multiple locations—Devmogra, Coimbatore, Raipur, Guwahati, and at 7, Lok Kalyan Marg in New Delhi. The expanded format marked a shift from tradition, turning PPC into a truly nationwide engagement rather than a single-venue event.
Describing the interactions as uplifting, PM Modi said the enthusiasm, honesty, and curiosity of students made the experience both refreshing and inspiring. He focused on the need for stress-free examinations, offering practical advice on handling pressure, building self-confidence, maintaining balance, and facing challenges with a positive mindset.
Sharing his thoughts on social media, the Prime Minister wrote that as exams approach, Pariksha Pe Charcha is back once again, providing an opportunity to interact with young minds across the country and discuss not only exams but several aspects of life and learning.
During the programme, PM Modi engages with students, parents, and teachers from across India, offering guidance on preparing for board and entrance examinations calmly and confidently, while also touching upon broader themes of personal growth, learning habits, and mental well-being.
This year marks the ninth edition of the Prime Minister’s flagship student outreach initiative, reflecting how PPC has evolved into a pan-India dialogue. The programme now stands as a national movement inspired by the vision of creating a supportive environment where students can grow without fear, pressure, or comparison.
Breaking from past practice, the Prime Minister directly connected with students from Tamil Nadu, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Assam, and Delhi—symbolically uniting the east, west, north, south, and central India on a shared platform.
The scale of participation highlighted the programme’s growing resonance. Over 4.5 crore people registered for Pariksha Pe Charcha 2026, while another 2.26 crore took part in related activities, pushing total participation beyond 6.76 crore and underscoring its expanding national reach and popularity.
