New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said he was looking forward to interacting with students, parents and teachers on different aspects of exams in this annual “Pariksha Pe Charcha” event.
The prime minister, in a post on X, said he was awaiting to hear questions and experiences from exam warriors that can motivate others.
“The Class X and XII board exams are approaching and so is this year’s #ParikshaPeCharcha,” he said.
“Looking forward to interacting with students, parents and teachers on different aspects of exams, most notably ways to overcome exam stress, remaining calm, confident and appearing for exams with a smile,” the prime minister said.
Approximately 45 lakh candidates are expected to appear in 204 subjects across Classes 10 and 12 from India and 26 countries abroad. The CBSE exams are likely to start from February 17.
More than four crore participants, including 3.75 crore students, have registered for the ninth edition of Pariksha Pe Charcha. The registration for Pariksha Pe Charcha will end on January 11.
He said India’s “Reform Express” is gaining momentum, powered by the NDA government’s investment policies as the economy is projected to grow at 7.4 per cent in the fiscal year 2026.
“India’s Reform Express continues to gain momentum. This is powered by the NDA Government’s comprehensive investment push and demand-led policies,” Modi said in a post on X.
The First Advance Estimates released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation on Wednesday put the GDP growth rate in 2025-26 (April 2025 to March 2026) at better than the 7.3 per cent forecast of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the government’s initial projection of 6.3 to 6.8 per cent.
“Be it infrastructure, manufacturing incentives, digital public goods or ‘Ease of Doing Business’, we are working to realise our dream of a prosperous India,” the prime minister said.
