New Delhi, 09 February (H.S.): Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in the second episode of the ninth edition of ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ aired on Monday, urged students to embrace self-confidence, discipline, and a fear-free mindset, declaring that exams are not life's endpoint but opportunities for self-discovery and growth.

Unique Regional Outreach

This edition stood apart as PM Modi engaged directly with students in Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu), Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Guwahati (Assam), and Gujarat's tribal regions, honoring their suggestions by traveling nationwide for intimate dialogues that fostered mutual learning.

Discipline as Life’s Anchor

In Coimbatore, PM Modi emphasized discipline as inspiration's bedrock: without it, even the strongest motivation becomes burdensome and breeds despair, akin to untimely farming ruining crops. He advised blending studies with passion seamlessly, praised curiosity about AI and startups, and cautioned against technology enslavement—use mobiles wisely, never dependently.

Sports-Education Balance

Raipur interactions highlighted equilibrium between academics and athletics: Play and you shall thrive transcends slogan to life principle, with physical activity equaling study importance. Savoring local Chhattisgarhi delicacies like Thethri and Khurmi, PM Modi lightened the atmosphere.

Writing Habit and Sleep Imperative

Preparation essentials included daily writing practice to build confidence over mere reading-induced stress, alongside ample sleep for mental freshness and novel ideas.

Leadership Beyond Elections

Amid Guwahati's Brahmaputra riverside, PM Modi redefined leadership as fearless commitment to righteousness regardless of others: resolve to act rightly, and leadership follows naturally. He encouraged peer support, aiding weaker classmates, and perpetual self-competition—avoid complacency by constant self-questioning for improvement.

Core Message

PM Modi's clarion call fused self-belief, discipline, balance, and fearlessness as keys unlocking not just exam victories but lifelong fulfillment.
