Pariksha Pe Charcha 2021 Live: 14 Lakh Register
Many of the 14 lakh students have already shared their queries about holding and writing exams with COVID-19 restrictions. PM Modi is expected to motivate the parents and students to appear for the exams amid COVID-19 restrictions and help alleviate certain fears surrounding the spread of infection. Earlier he talked about the online event as he said that the students must see the exams as an opportunity and not as an end of life's dreams.
“We have been living under the shadow of coronavirus for the last one year and because of that I have to forego the charm of meeting you in person and have to be with you in a new format -- the first virtual edition of 'Pariksha Pe Charcha'”, he had earlier said on social media.
Describing the students, parents and teachers as ‘exam warriors', PM Modi said, “The first ever virtual PPC2021 is going to be an exciting interaction, covering a diverse range of topics. You could be an exam warrior, a parent or a teacher, there's something for everyone. Let us make exams stress free”. Before the event, the prime minister also released a revised edition of his book, Exam Warriors.
Those interested had to register themselves for the event and participate in an online competition organised by the government's online portal, MyGov.in. A total of 1,500 students, 200 parents and 250 teachers were selected.
