The mission of this year’s Pariksha Pe Charcha has been more or less the same- to encourage mental well-being and academic resilience. Some themes for the live Q&A may include:
Exam stress and time management
Effective study habits
Maintaining confidence and motivation
Balancing learning with personal growth
These story lines reflect rising anxieties among students and their families about the emotional upheaval caused by board and entrance exams.
Nationwide Participation and School Engagement
In some states including Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, the education department has re-scheduled class timings so students, teachers and parents can take part in the PPC events being held locally or watch live telecast together.
Pariksha Pe Charcha is now the vogue in India’s educational calendar, not just for the zillions glued at it but for its culture of positivity around exams.
“Along with the motivational words, with board exams proliferating on the horizon, Pariksha Pe Charcha 2026 also seeks to offer examples and illustrations from everyday life that students of this age can relate to,” an official statement said. Given its broad distribution and the direct communication from the nation’s leadership, this year’s edition is likely to be one of the most impactful.
