Pariksha Pe Charcha Enters Guinness World Record with Powerful Engagement

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's flagship initiative, Pariksha Pe Charcha (PPC), has achieved a Guinness World Record for "most people registered on a citizen engagement platform in one month," as announced by the Ministry of Education. The program received a staggering 3.53 crore valid registrations during its eighth edition, underscoring its massive reach and appeal.

The Pariksha Pe Charcha event aims to alter perceptions of examination season, transforming it from a period of stress to one of positivity, preparation, and purposeful learning. Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan lauded the program, noting that PPC has been redefined as a national approach, with over 21 crore viewers across all media platforms tuning in to its eighth iteration.

Highlighting the initiative's success, officials stated that such widespread participation reflects India's dedication to holistic and inclusive education, aligning with the vision of a Viksit Bharat. The annual event, which started in 2018, offers students, parents, and teachers a platform to engage in stress-free learning, moderated by Prime Minister Modi.
