Prime Minister Narendra Modi conducted 'Pariksha Pe Charcha 2020' today and interacted with students and teachers across India.
With less than a month left for Class 10 and Class 12 exams, Prime Minister Narendra Modi conducted 'Pariksha Pe Charcha 2020' today and interacted with students and teachers across India.
The interactive session with the Prime Minister was held in Talkatora Stadium in Delhi.
While interacting with a cross-section of students, teachers, and parents, Prime Minister Modi said children's passion should not become fashion for parents: "What is not good is when the passion of the children becomes fashion statements for parents. Extra-curricular activities needn’t be glamour driven. Let each child pursue what he or she likes."
The prime minister said technology should lead to expansion of the mind and be seen as a means to innovate. PM also urged students to be informed about changing trends & technologies.
This is the third edition of 'Pariksha Pe Charcha 2020'.
A look at PM Narendra Modi's top quotes from the event.
1. PM Narendra Modi talks about the power of motivation and positive thinking by giving an example of the India-Australia test match in 2001.
Do you remember the India-Australia test series in 2001? Our cricket team was facing setbacks. The mood was not very good. But, in those moments can we ever forget what Rahul Dravid and VVSLaxman did. They turned the match around. Similarly, who can forget Anil Kumble's bowling with an injury? This is the power of motivation and positive thinking: PM
2. A temporary setback doesn’t mean success is not waiting. In fact, a setback may mean the best is yet to come: PM Modi
3. "The way ahead lies in pursuing, not pressurising children. Inspire children to do things that bring out their inner potential", said PM Modi.
4. Are marks obtained in exams the only yardstick for success? PM Narendra Modi responds "This may have been true in the past; today possibilities are plenty; exams are only a pitstop; I request parents to refrain from thinking exams are the end of it"
5. "Not pursuing co-curricular activities can make a person like a robot. Yes, this would require better time management. Extra-curricular activities needn’t be glamour driven. Let each child pursue what he or she likes."
6. I would urge students to be confident about their own preparation. Do not enter the exam hall with any sort of pressure. Do not worry about what the others are doing. Have faith in yourself and focus on what you’ve prepared: PM Modi
7. Technology is a friend. Merely knowledge of technology isn’t enough. Its application is as important: PM Modi
