Prime Minister Narendra Modi interacted with students from different states in Episode 2 of Pariksha Pe Charcha 2026, sharing guidance on exams, careers, discipline, technology, and life values.
The Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, held wide-ranging interactions with students during Episode 2 of Pariksha Pe Charcha 2026. This special edition was different from previous years, as discussions were held in multiple parts of the country instead of one location.
The episode began in Coimbatore, where students warmly welcomed the Prime Minister with a traditional “Vanakkam.” Students shared their excitement and described the Prime Minister as simple, humble, and approachable. During the interaction, students asked questions about startups, balancing studies with passion, exam stress, motivation versus discipline, and the growing influence of artificial intelligence.
The Prime Minister encouraged students to focus on teamwork for startups, combine passion with academics, and adopt discipline in daily life. He advised students not to fear AI but to use technology as a tool rather than becoming dependent on it. He also highlighted small daily habits that can help India move towards becoming a developed nation by 2047.
The interaction then moved to Raipur, where students discussed travel, mental calm during exams, sports and education balance, environmental protection, and leadership qualities. The Prime Minister stressed the importance of discipline, practice, environmental responsibility, and leading by example through small actions like saving water and maintaining cleanliness.
Later, the Prime Minister met tribal students in villages of Gujarat, where discussions focused on education, development of tribal areas, inspiration for leadership, career choices, and handling stress. He spoke about the role of teachers, infrastructure, and education in bringing long-term development. Students also showcased traditional Warli, Lippan, and Pithora art, reflecting India’s rich tribal culture.
The final interaction took place in the North East, in Guwahati, while sailing on the Brahmaputra river. Students spoke about exam fear, confidence, health, diet, family pressure, and public speaking. The Prime Minister advised students to compete with themselves, prioritize health and sleep, build self-confidence, and learn continuously from life experiences.
Throughout the episode, students from different regions expressed joy and gratitude for the opportunity to interact directly with the Prime Minister. The discussions highlighted that while students’ backgrounds and cultures may differ, their dreams, concerns, and aspirations remain the same.
The Prime Minister concluded by saying that Pariksha Pe Charcha is not just about exams, but about understanding life, reducing stress, and learning together. He extended his best wishes to students across the country for their exams and future journeys.
