	<li>PM Modi said “running commentary” from parents, teachers and relatives drawing negative comparisons between children affects students’ capability. “We must ensure to address the issue through proper and heartfelt conversations with students rather than reducing their morale and confidence through inimical comparisons and talks," PM Modi said.<br />

	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>PM Modi advised students to take care of their health and keep themselves well-recharged. “Keeping the body healthy is very important for a healthy mind. For this, getting proper sleep is also very important," Modi said.<br />
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Modi told the students more practice will make them more confident while taking exams. “No matter how difficult the question paper is, if you have practised well, you will perform well,” the Indian PM said. “Keep your Focus on YOU! What YOU are, what YOU do, what YOU practice, is what will decide your future," he added.<br />
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Modi advised children not to remain confused. “Indecisiveness is even worse,” he warned. He advised children to analyse the details of things well and throw confusion out of the brain.<br />
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>PM Modi also said excess of anything is harmful, including addiction to mobile phones. “It’s very important how much of anything is used,” he said.<br />
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>While addressing the parents, PM Modi said they should not sow the seeds of competition among their children but a sense of inspiration.&nbsp;</li>

PM Modi's 'Pariksha Pe Charcha' to include international students this year

<p>Prime Minister Narendra Modi held his second <em>Pariksha pe Charcha</em> on Tuesday. Like the year before, the event was conducted at Delhi's Talkatora stadium.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The event is meant to be a stress buster for students about to appear for their annual examinations.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On Tuesday, students from around the country asked the prime minister a number of exam- and life-related questions. How, sir, are you still so energetic? Please guide me towards getting a better job...&nbsp;</p>

<p>And that most important question of all, one that every student has at some point of time in his or her young life asked: Are examinations really good for you, or are they a hindrance to your all-round development?&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Challenges are important in life," Prime Minister Modi said. "Don't curse them. You should instead think of a challenge as an opportunity."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Modi went on to give the example of a person who wishes to compete at the Olympics, asking how he can if he has not played at the district, state and national level first?&nbsp;</p>

<p>Exams are important, Modi said, but they are not the be all and end all of life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Modi added that it was important for children to have healthy conversations with parents.&nbsp;</p>

<p>But he added that "parents who try to impose their unfulfilled wishes on their kids are a failure, they must try to recognise the potential in their children. As far as expectations are concerned, we also feel like working hard when there are expectations."&nbsp;</p>

At 'Pariksha pe Charcha', PM Modi counsels children about to sit for annual exams

<p>Prime Minister Narendra Modi held an interaction with lakhs of students from across the country. Titled &quot;Pariksha Pe Charcha&quot; or &quot;Exam Ki Baat&quot;, the interaction took place in New Delhi&#39;s Talkatora Stadium. PM Modi was asked questions by the students. The prime minister told students how to develop self-confidence and focus.</p>

<p><strong>Highlights from PM Modi&#39;s address and answers to students&#39; questions</strong></p>

<p>You are not talking to the Prime Minister of India, you are talking to a friend</p>

<p>I am here as a student let us see how many marks will you give me out of 10</p>

<p>Don&#39;t ape competition</p>

<p>Identify your strengths</p>

<p>Choose opponents carefully</p>

<p>Students usually worship Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge. But on the day of exam, they worship Lord Hanuman</p>

<p>Self-confidence is necessary. It is not a herbal potion which mother asks to take as a tablet before going for an exam&nbsp;</p>

<p>Self-confidence comes by challenging ourselves and working hard. We should always think of bettering ourselves. In addition to the right skills and the means, what a student needs is self-confidence</p>

<p>Concentration isn&rsquo;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</p>

<p>I would say Yoga is a wonderful way to improve concentration</p>

<p>So do you want me to take a class for your parents today?<br />
<br />
Learn to de-focus, then focus</p>

<p>Don&#39;t restrict yourselves to books<br />
<br />
Balance games with studies</p>

<p>Spend time in nature<br />
<br />
Develop Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and EQ (Emotional Quotient) equally<br />
<br />
I wish you all the best for your board exams, for my board exams (elections) I have the wishes of 125 crore Indians with me</p>

<p>Results and marks are by-products of exams, one must concentrate on giving their best, I follow a similar approach in politics</p>
