HIGHLIGHTS
- PM Modi asks parents not to expect children to fulfil their unfulfilled dreams
- Says each child has his or her own potential and strengths
- Technology should lead to expansion of mind: PM Modi
Everyone's talking about PUBG, the battle royale game that requires players to be the last man standing. So is Narendra Modi.
PUBG, or PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, found a mention in a conversation the prime minister had with a concerned parent at Pariksha Pe Charcha, an event held today in Delhi.
When a mother asked what she must do as her son -- a Class 9 student -- was distracted by online games, PM Modi asked: "Is this related to PUBG?"
Then came the advice:
"Then this is both the problem and the solution. If we want our kids to turn away from technology, then they will fall behind."
Watch.

At Pariksha Pe Charcha, PM Modi interacted with students, asking them to aim high, live life to attain knowledge and be self-confident.
He asked parents not to expect their children to fulfil their unfulfilled dreams.
"I would request parents, do not expect your children to fulfil your unfulfilled dreams. Every child has his or her own potential and strengths... It is important to understand these positives of every child," PM Modi said.
He also described the townhall as a "mini-India, a place where we have in our midst the future of India".
The prime minister said technology should lead to expansion of the mind and be seen as a means to innovate, but, he also asked students not to forget the playing field.
