New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed students preparing for board exams through his ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio programme on Sunday.
Here are the highlights:
I have been an ordinary student. I have not scored exceptionally well in the exams I gave and have a poor handwriting also.
People feel if an exam goes wrong everything will change. But it is not like that. Do not take so much tension.
A good batsman is thinking about the ball he is facing not about the match, or series. He is thinking about the present.
Sometimes we think too much about the future or are lost in the past. Can’t do that during exam time.
The brighter your future is, the brighter India will be. It is you who will shape India’s future.
The Prime Minister had earlier urged students and teachers to share their experiences, which could motivate and inspire those preparing for exams.
He later thanked all the people who shared their thoughts for today’s programme. “Am happy that students, parents and teachers are sharing insightful thoughts for this Sunday’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme,” Prime Minister Modi tweeted.
‘Mann Ki Baat’ was started in October last year and has covered topics like ‘Swacch Bharat Abhiyan’, rising cases of drug addiction in the country and black money. Last month, Prime Minister Modi and U.S. President Barack Obama had jointly addressed the nation via the programme.
