This is really a fantastic effort. I think nowhere in the
world a world leader has ever shown such interest in
our children, being concerned about the pressures
that they go through. I deeply appreciate that the
Prime Minister is taking interest in the examination
blues some of them are having.
-Sadhguru, Yogi & Mystic, Founder of Isha Foundation

I think I’m very lucky that my parents never pressured
me to bring good marks. I’d like to tell parents that
it’s very important to recognise their child’s potential.
Maybe their interest lies in something else and that is
also okay.
-Deepika Padukone, Actress

In life, if you have to take a challenge, you have to be
very strong, from inside also. If you’re not strong, how
will you deal with it? I became a champion after facing
so many challenges. If I can do it, why can’t you!
-M.C. Mary Kom, Indian Olympic boxer & former Rajya Sabha MP

I think whenever we hear of our exams, we are
engulfed with a wave of fear. But don’t let that fear
stop you. Conquer your fears. The Prime Minister also
says that to cheat is to be cheap. So, be honest about
those things.
-Ishita Kishore, UPSC-CSE AIR - 1 2022

One of the things that I have realised is that everyone’s
exam preparation is a personalised thing. There’s
no single rule of preparation which if applied on me
would apply to others.
-Jai Kumar Bohara, CLAT AIR-1 2024

Three things that I got out of Pariksha Pe Charcha: If
you want to excel in any field, or if you want to stay
ahead of the crowd, there are three wins that you
have to do everyday- the first one is the spiritual win,
second is the mental win, and the third is the physical
win.
