PM Modi’s Pariksha Pe Charcha 2025 Sets Guinness World Record

The flagship project of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pariksha Pe Charcha (PPC) 2025, has made history as it earned the Guinness World Records by having the most number of individuals enrolled on a citizen engagement platform in one month. The 8th edition of this event was historic with 3.53 crore valid registrations being completed on the MyGov portal making it a milestone in the education sector of India and its endeavors in digital participation.

What does Pariksha Pe Charcha mean?

Started in 2018, Pariksha Pe Charcha is a worldwide interactive and one-of-a-kind program that provides an opportunity to connect students, parents, and teachers directly to PM Modi. The project transforms exam season from anxiety and stress into a celebration of learning, discussion, and preparation. During every meeting, the Prime Minister talks about typical exam-related issues, such as exam anxiety, time management, screen time addiction, and learning methods, providing valuable tips and giving confidence to students.

Record Breaking Participation in 2025

• There were 3.53 crore valid registrations on the MyGov and this was an official record by the Guinness World Records.
• The day was marked with a ceremony at New Delhi where dignitaries such as Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw praised the feat.
• More than 21 crore people participated in PPC 2025 on TV, social, and digital media platforms, indicating its far-reaching nature and popularity.
• The involvement of students overseas this year was also very active and indeed PPC was a global movement.

Key features of Pariksha Pe Charcha 2025

• Rich participation: Participants were students, their parents, and teachers of different backgrounds including students who had enjoyed national programs of education and who had won prizes.
• Digital inclusiveness: Registrations were accepted using self and teacher logins and the competition allowed questions of up to 500 characters to be sent to the Prime Minister.
• Recognition and rewards: The selected participants received special appreciation certificates, the PPC kits, and in case of the few, selected students - a hand-on experience with PM Modi and special digital mementos. 

Influence and scope

Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan pointed out that these are staggering levels of viewership (over 21 crore viewers across TV, digital, and social media) and participation, which shows the confidence that the nation has on the educational vision of the Prime Minister. Pariksha Pe Charcha is even seen as a movement of a stress free and happy learning now, not merely an anniversary. The program also matches the goals of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which focuses on emotional health, experiential learning, and life-long skills rather than rote learning.

Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw described the milestone as a depiction of increased use of digital services and citizen empowerment in governance in India. Technology allowed so many people to participate without effort, which underlines the emphasis on the health and confidence levels of students by the government.

A National Movement for Stress-Free Exams

Pariksha has been very effective in changing the myth of fear to a festival of self-realization and discovery. Immediately following a record-breaking number of the 2025 edition, the enthusiasm of the educational community and students in India indicates not only the growing priority of proactive and open conversations around studying and student mental health, but also the rising ambitions of education.

As PPC is still developing, its mission is understood very well: to make Indian education more interactive, inclusive, and empowering to a fast-changing nation of youth.
