Pariksha Pe Charcha 2020 HIGHLIGHTS: Don’t pressure, let students pursue, PM Modi’s mantra for parents

In an advice to the parents and teachers, Modi sadi them to allow the students to "pursue" and not "pressure." "Every parent/teacher must think about how they behaved with the children when they were about 4-5 years old. You didn't pressurize them, you just motivated them. I want parents to accept that their children have grown up, but they must understand that their psyche to help them must never change or go away. Parents who allow their children to pursue things (if they are on the right track) are doing right thing."

"Can we decide that by 2022, we will all buy everything that's India made? We will promote 'Make In India'. This will help our economy. This will strengthen our country. We shouldn't let water flow needlessly. We mustn't use electricity more than we need. We must not travel without tickets on trains. There are a lot of responsibilities that can help in the development of the entire country," PM Modi said. 

Motivating students to follow the Fundamental Duties enshrined in the Indian Constitution, PM Modi said, "There's a fine connection between our rights and responsibilities. Our rights are directly dependent on the responsibilities performed by others. Have you ever thought where will you be in 2047, at the completion of 100 years of India's independence? You'd be leading someone, somewhere in life. If you get a broken and dilapidated country when you become a leader, would you able to lead well? I hope this generation takes it upon themselves to act on some of the Fundamental Duties enshrined in our Constitution."

In his masterclass, PM Modi said, 'Technological trends are changing quickly. It is essential to stay updated with these trends. Fear of technology is not good. Consider it as a friend. There are few things that you should do each day. Have a technology-free hour. Dedicate some time away from the gadgets. Encourage your parents also to do the same. '

Cautioning parents not to burden the kids, PM Modi said, "Not pursuing any extra co-curricular activities can make a person like a robot. What is not good is when the passion of the children becomes fashion statements for parents. Extra-curricular activities needn’t be glamour driven. Let each child pursue what he or she likes."

Replying to a question, PM Narendra Mod said that examinations an important milestone in life, but not the end of the world. "Good marks in exams are not everything, we have to come out of the thinking that exams are all," PM Modi said. He also encouraged students to participate in extra-curricular activities. "You should participate in everything, but balance your time efficiently." He also suggests students in class 10 and 12 to do something creative every day even if for 15 minutes. This will help them relax. 

Talking about motivation, demotivation, PM Narendra Modi took the example of India-Australia test series in 2001.

"Do you remember the India-Australia test series in 2001? Our cricket team was facing setbacks. The mood was not very good. But, in those moments can we ever forget what Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman281 did. They turned the match around," said PM Narendra Modi.

During the interaction, the prime minister also mentioned the India-Australia test series in 2001 to drive home his point. Referring to the match, PM said, "The mood was not very good. But, in those moments can we ever forget what Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman did? They turned the match around. We can add enthusiasm to every aspect of life. A temporary setback doesn’t mean success is not waiting. In fact, a setback may mean the best is yet to come."

PM Narendra Modi said that motivation, demotivation are very common in life. "Motivation, demotivation are very common. Everyone goes through these feelings," said PM Narendra Modi.

Modi also took the example of Chadrayaan. "In this regard, I can never forget my visit to ISRO during Chadrayaan and the time spent with our hardworking scientists," Modi said.

Encouraging the students, PM Modi said,"When ISRO launched the moon mission, I was told not to go for Chandrayaan-2's landing as there was no guarntee of success. When I went to attend the launch, I was restless about the failure of the Chandrayaan 2, so I met the scientists to motivate them the next morning.' He further added, 'Motivation, demotivation are very common. Everyone goes through these feelings. But remember that every failure is a step towards success.'

"I though I should share the burden your parents have to bear. I am also a member of your family, why not share your parents' burden on a community scale." Referring to the social media trend #WithoutFilter, PM has requested students to raise questions without any filter. "Let this discussion also be free, light-hearted and interesting. We may even make mistakes. And, in my case, if I make a mistake the friends in the media will love it too," PM Modi said.

Regarding Hackathons, PM Narendra Modi said, "I also love attending Hackathons. They showcase the power and talent of India’s youth."

The Pariksha Pe Charcha 2020 will be broadcasted in Doordarshan and other news channels from 11 am.

Narendra Modi said that students lack proper guidance. He suggested them to first assess what is their interest and passion. What is that they like doing the most. “Take help from your teachers in making an informed choice. In the late 70s, I used to ask students in Baroda, and most students wanted to attain a degree and did not know about what to do. Once during my visit, a student said I want to rule, hence I want to become a bureaucrat. It was his clarity which made him reach his target later. Have clarity of thoughts and faith in your conviction. Follow the conviction with a character to act,” Modi said.

Prime Minister suggested parents not to expect their children to fulfil their unfulfilled dreams. “I would request parents, do not expect your children to fulfill your unfulfilled dreams. Every child has his or her own potential and strengths… It is important to understand these positives of every child,” PM Modi said.

Last year from Pariksha Pe Charcha, PM Narendra Modi advised parents not to ignore depression of their child.

The Prime Minister told parents and teachers that timely intervention can solve cases of depression. “Timely intervention is necessary in cases of depression. Do not ignore early symptoms. We can fight back,” said he.

“If smallest of symptoms of depressions are found, take your child to expert. Do not shy away from counselling. It is wrong to think about ‘what will people think, what if this gets leaked?’

An online competition was organised based on which students who will attend the lecture in New Delhi were selected. The selected students will also get a chance to ask questions to the Prime Minister. A total of 2000 students have been shortlisted to attend the event.

HRD minister Ramesh Pokhriyal  Nishank tweeted on #ParikshaPeCharcha2020 saying, "I am sure Modi's inspiring dialogue will instill enthusiasm in students."
