How to prepare for exams? PM Modi reveals 5 surefire tips; new tips will be shared in 'Pariksha Pe Charcha'..
Pariksha Pe Charcha 2026: It's natural for anxiety lines to appear on your forehead and your heart to race as exam time approaches. But the credit for transforming this stressful atmosphere into a celebration goes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Pariksha Pe Charcha' (PPC) campaign. Through his popular book 'Exam Warriors' and the annual interactive sessions, PM Modi has explained that exams are not a matter of life and death, but merely a small step to test one's abilities.
With PM Modi's tips, the 'fear' of exams gradually transforms into confidence. Through 'Pariksha Pe Charcha', PM Modi has given such 'magical formulas' for success that even an average student can perform brilliantly by adopting them. The main objective of these suggestions is to eliminate the tendency to rote learn and improve the learning process. Through the Pariksha Pe Charcha dialogue, he makes students, parents, and teachers a part of an ecosystem where the focus is on encouragement instead of pressure.
5 'Master Strokes' to Overcome Exam Stress
The analysis of Prime Minister Modi's dialogues and experiences can be seen in the following 5 points:
1. Treat Exams as a Celebration
PM Modi's biggest mantra is not to consider exams a burden. Just as we prepare for festivals with enthusiasm, we should prepare for exams in the same way. When the mind is happy, the brain will retain information correctly. Things studied under stress are not remembered, but things learned with enthusiasm are remembered for a lifetime.
2. The Habit of 'Digital Fasting.'
In today's world, smartphones and social media are the biggest enemies of focus. PM Modi suggests practicing 'digital fasting' during studies. That is, set aside some time during the day when you are completely away from technology. This will give the mind rest and increase the power of concentration manifold.
3. No Compromise on Sleep and Rest
Many students stay up all night studying during exam days. According to the PM, a tired mind cannot work effectively. Getting enough sleep (7-8 hours) and taking short breaks in between is essential. Deep sleep not only refreshes the body but also strengthens memory.
4. Compete with yourself, not others
Parents often compare their children to other children, which puts students under pressure. PM Modi says that your competition should only be with your "yesterday's" version of yourself. Strive to be a little better every day, instead of losing your originality in the race to surpass others.
5. Practice writing
Nowadays, students focus more on reading and less on writing. PM Modi suggests that "the more you read, the more you should write." Writing improves hand-eye coordination, which helps maintain speed and accuracy while writing answers during the three hours of the exam.
Pariksha Pe Charcha to set a new record
