‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ Today: PM Modi Set to Talk to Students Across India at 10 AM

New Delhi: This time too, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to talk directly to the children on Friday. This is the same 'Pariksha Pe Charcha' program, where he sits with the children and talks about exams, study pressure, tension etc. very lovingly and openly. The atmosphere is exactly like that of friends—no formality, no fear. Children feel free to ask whatever comes to their mind and the answer is given in very simple, understandable language.

When and where can you watch?

It will go live on February 6 at 10 am. Viewers can also watch it on SonyLIV, Prime Video and ZEE5. One can watch the program comfortably at home, on the phone, or on a laptop.

What is its real purpose?

Most of the children get nervous as soon as they hear the name of the examination. This anxiety has to be reduced. PM tells children to study properly, manage time, keep the mind calm – then any exam seems easy. Instead of considering education as a burden, they talk about considering it as an opportunity to learn.

What did the PM say to the children?

He posted it on social media and asked everyone to see it. He said that this is a special moment for him too – to connect with children from across the country and understand their thinking.

Where is this happening this time?

This year, sessions are being held simultaneously from different places – Devmogra in Gujarat, Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu, Raipur in Chhattisgarh, Guwahati in Assam and the PM's house in Delhi i.e. 7 Lok Kalyan Marg.

How many children are involved?

This time the record has been broken. More than 4.5 crore children got registered. Above all, 2.26 crore people participated in different activities. Overall, more than 6.76 crore people are together this time.

How long has this program been running?

It was started in 2018. Every year children, teachers, parents all come together. Now it is not just a show – it has become a trusted friend for children during exam time. It's just that – examination is not the final truth of life, it is just a small step. If you have some confidence, some good preparation and right thinking, then everything becomes very easy.
