In light of the Mahakumbh celebrations, the exam centre for Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) 2025 scheduled for February 1 and 2, 2025, and the Joint Admission test for Masters (JAM) 2025 examination on February 2, 2025, in Prayagraj, have been relocated to Lucknow on the same dates. This was stated in a press release shared by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee

The decision was officially announced by IIT Roorkee (GATE organising institute) and IIT Delhi (JAM organising institute) after multiple candidates raised concerns about travel difficulties owing to the expected large congregation of devotees in Prayagraj during the Mahakumbh.  

A joint statement from the institutes read, “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 (1st and 2nd February 2025 for GATE and 2nd February 2025 for JAM, respectively).”  

Below are the updated exam centre details for candidates who were initially allotted Prayagraj centres:
