“Our sportspersons inspire us with their resilience, focus, and winning mindset. Watch @MangteC, @suhas_ly, and @AvaniLekhara share tips on handling exam pressure during Pariksha Pe Charcha,” PM Modi posted on X.

Key Takeaways From Sporting Icons

  • Suhas Lalinakere Yathiraj (IAS Officer & Two-Time Paralympic Silver Medallist)

“Your mind is your greatest friend and your greatest enemy. Whether it’s an exam or life’s challenges, nervous energy is something that everyone experiences.”

  • Mary Kom (Six-Time World Champion Boxer)

“In the beginning, it was very difficult because boxing was not considered a women’s sport. It was challenging, but I wanted to prove myself. In this way, I have brought glory to the country by becoming a world champion multiple times.”

  • Avani Lekhara (Two-Time Paralympic Champion Shooter)

“We fear things that we don’t have knowledge about. As I started gaining knowledge and improving myself, my fear gradually decreased.”
