Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday congratulated students who passed the Central Board of Second Education (CBSE) examinations and told the student community that success and failure are a part of life.

"(CBSE) Board exam results are out. I congratulate those who have passed the exams," Modi said in his radio programme 'Mann Ki Baat'.

The prime minister, however, asked those not successful or scored low marks in their exams not to lose heart.

"Success and failure are a part of life. We can learn a lot from failure also," he added.

Modi also said many people told him that his radio address before the exams was very helpful. "But, the reason for student's success is their hard work."
