Today Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the students of the country to discuss the importance of exams and why exams should be fun.

Interaction began at 12PM with students assembled at Talkatora Stadium in New Delhi as well as via video conferencing with students gathered all around the nation. PM explained why they should be stress-free and happy during exam season with tips to handle success and failure.

During his interaction with students he made them comfortable by saying that You are not talking to the Prime Minister of India, you are talking to a friend, I am here as a student let us see how many marks will you give me out of 10.

He said he wishes to remember his teachers who had contributed in what he is today and they still treat him as their student.
He said, “As in our tradition Students usually worship Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge. But on the day of exam, they worship Lord Hanuman but I used to make fun of them. But any how jokes apart, it boosts up our confidence which is very important and this confidence is like a medicine which a mother can offer to us before examination”.

Answering a question of a student named Kanishka from Dadri, Noida regarding concentration he explained that Concentration isn’t something that has to be specifically learnt. Every person does concentrate on something or the other during the day, it may be while reading, hearing a song, talking to a friend and then to apply the same in all things.

He suggested students that not to compete with others but with themselves. He also stressed on forging a healthy relationship between a student and a teacher

At last he wished all the best to students for their board exams, and said for my upcoming examination I have the wishes of 125 crore Indians with me and that’s my strength.
