#SupremeCourtofIndia hearing matter pertaining to postponement of #GATE2022 .

DYC J: We can’t start postponing exams like this! We can’t play with the lives of the students. In your petition there is someone who runs a coaching class!!!

DYC J: 9 lakh you say are appearing. Its dangerous for the court to step into this arena #GATE2022 . Students have prepared, there will be chaos in the country.

Pallav Mongia: The instructions says if you are #COVID19 positive dont come, if you are showing symptoms come

DYC J: When was the exam notified?

Mongia: In August.

Satpal Singh, Adv: There are lockdowns in weekends milords. In their admit card, any person from symptom will be debarred #GATE2022

DYC J: How are we sure that things will improve in 1 month? We cannot have a clear situ

DYC J: Look at the broader issues here. Look at the consequences of the court interfering in #GATE2022 #GATE2022Postponed

ORDER:
The plea for postponement of #GATE2022 barely 48 hours before the scheduled date is replete with a potential for chaos and uncertainty

In the lives of the students. There is no overarching reason why this court should subplant the duties and functions of the regulatory authorities. On a considered perspective of the position and consistent with the circumspection wrt to academic matters, dismissed. #GATE2022
