Bhubaneswar: With examination season fast approaching, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday appealed the students to appear the exams with a smile and without any stress.

In a tweet, Modi said, “As our brave #ExamWarriors start padding up for their exams, ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha 2021’ returns, this time fully online and open to students all over the world. Come, let us appear for the exams with a smile and without stress.”


Pariksha Pe Charcha is a much-awaited annual event where the Prime Minister responds to questions related to examination stress and related areas posed by students in his uniquely engaging style in a live programme.

Modi further said that on popular demand, ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha 2021’ will also include parents and teachers. It’ll be a fun filled discussion on an otherwise serious subject. “I call upon my student friends, their amazing parents and hardworking teachers to take part in #PPC2021 in large numbers,” tweeted Modi.

Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ today announced the commencement of the registration process of the fourth edition of Prime Minister’s Interaction Programme with school students, teachers and parents – Pariksha Pe Charcha 2021 through his social media platform.

Pokhriyal informed that this time the programme will be held virtually. He said that questions related to dealing with examination stress from school students of class 9 to 12 will be invited through MyGov platform and selected questions will be featured in the programme. He also informed that school students, teachers and parents from all across the country are to be selected through an online creative writing competition designed specifically for them on MyGov platform.

There are different topics assigned for students, parents and teachers in the contest, official sources said.

“The selected participants will be participating in the programme online from their respective State and UT headquarters and will be presented with a special PPC kit (Pariksha Pe Charcha kit).
