Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s flagship initiative, Pariksha Pe Charcha, which has been successfully organized by the Ministry of Education in collaboration with MyGov since 2018, has been conferred with the Guinness World Record for the “most people registered on a citizen engagement platform in one month”.
This recognition celebrates the unprecedented achievement of 3.53 crore valid registrations received during the 8th edition of the programme, hosted on the MyGov platform.
Pariksha Pe Charcha is a unique global platform conceptualized and led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, where he directly interacts with students, teachers, and parents. The initiative transforms the examination season into a festival of positivity, preparation, and purposeful learning, making exams a time for encouragement rather than stress.
The official Guinness World Record certificate was formally presented at a ceremony held in New Delhi. The event was graced by the Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan; Union Minister of Electronics and Information Technology, Railways and Information & Broadcasting and other ministers and officials. The record was validated and announced by Mr Rishi Nath, official adjudicator of Guinness World Records.
Speaking on the occasion, Pradhan said under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pariksha Pe Charcha has been redefined as a national approach to examinations by turning stress into a festival of learning. He informed that the 8th edition of PPC saw a total of 21+ crore viewership across all media platforms in 2025.
The overwhelming participation in PPC 2025 is seen as a reflection of the country’s collective commitment to holistic and inclusive education and alignment with the vision of a Viksit Bharat, he added.
Vaishnaw called Pariksha Pe Charcha a unique initiative by PM Narendra Modi that brings together students, parents, and teachers to promote well-being and stress-free learning. He highlighted the wide range of career opportunities available to students in this Amrit Kaal and said that the Guinness World Record for highest registrations demonstrates the strong public trust in the initiative, he added.
