IIT Roorkee and IIT Delhi have released a joint notification informing candidates about the change in exam centre of GATE 2025 and JAM 2025 exam scheduled in Pyayagraj on February 1 and 2, 2025. In view of the Mahakumbh, the GATE 2025 examinations on February 1 and 2, 2025, and JAM 2025 examinations on February 2, 2025, scheduled in Prayagraj, will now be conducted in Lucknow on the same dates.
In a statement, the GATE organising institute, IIT Roorkee, and JAM organising institute, IIT Delhi, said, “Representations have been received from several candidates expressing their difficulty in reaching the examination centres in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, because of the huge congregation of devotees expected in the Mahakumbh on February 1 and 2, 2025. Therefore, the examination scheduled at centres in Prayagraj has been shifted to centres in Lucknow on the respective GATE and JAM examination days (1 and 2 February 2025 for GATE and 2 February 2025 for JAM, respectively).”
