Asking the students what the definition of a leader is, PM Modi said, “It’s someone wearing ‘kurta-pyjama’, a jacket, giving speeches on various platforms. That’s not just the case. If anyone becomes a leader their job is not to correct other’s mistakes. It’s to make yourself an example”.Citing the example of a class monitor, the PM said, “If everyone has to come on time but the class monitor himself does not adhere to the rules, will anyone listen to him? No. But for example, if a teacher has given you homework. The class monitor finishes it first and even helps others, then he is a good leader.”Well-known personalities like actor Deepika Padukone, boxer MC Mary Kom and spiritual leader Sadhguru have also shared their experiences and knowledge with students on key aspects of life and learning in different episodes of Pariksha Pe Charcha (PPC) this year.PPC is an annual event in which Modi interacts with students appearing for board examinations. During the event, he also answers students’ queries related to exam stress and other issues.
