He said that the outcome of the Parkash Sarvekshan would reflect the overall performance of the education department and all stakeholders must work in unison to ensure that our students are well-prepared to achieve good ranking at the national level.

He stressed on conducting regular practice sessions and teachers should provide targeted support to address learning gaps. Apart from primary-level teachers, the school lecturers must actively contribute towards the success of the survey, he added.
