The Ministry of Education lauds PPC as a growing mass movement that promotes examinations as a festival of learning and celebration. The 8th edition of the PPC has already set a record for registrations, surpassing last year's participation numbers.

Organised by the Department of School Education and Literacy under the Ministry of Education, the PPC has become a highly anticipated event. The 7th edition in 2024 was hosted in a Town Hall format at Bharat Mandapam, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi.
