February 09, 2026

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi said that our students are endowed with extraordinary talent and possess the complete potential to turn their dreams into reality. He noted that the objective of Pariksha Pe Charcha is to guide students on how to meaningfully use their abilities and skills for personal growth and success.

The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam on the occasion-

“विद्या वितर्को विज्ञानं स्मृतिस्तत्परता क्रिया। यस्यैते षड्गुणास्तस्य नासाध्यमतिवर्तते॥”

The Subhashitam conveys that a person who possesses knowledge, logic, science, memory, promptness and activity can overcome any challenge, and nothing is impossible for such an individual.

The Prime Minister wrote on X;

“अद्भुत प्रतिभा के धनी हमारे विद्यार्थियों में अपने सपनों को सच करने की पूरी क्षमता है। 'परीक्षा पे चर्चा' का उद्देश्य भी यही है कि कैसे वे अपनी प्रतिभा और कौशल का सार्थक इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं।

विद्या वितर्को विज्ञानं स्मृतिस्तत्परता क्रिया।

यस्यैते षड्गुणास्तस्य नासाध्यमतिवर्तते॥”
