Will GATE 2021 be Postponed?

IIT Bombay is set to conduct GATE 2021 on February 06, 07, 13 & 14, and the admit card has been released on January 08, 2021. However, most of the students have been demanding to postpone the entrance exam considering the academic session disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. On Twitter, some students indicated that the final-year semester exams of the B.Tech course may be delayed till August, and most of them are yet to complete the first semester of the final year. In such circumstances, the preparation for the GATE 2021 has been disrupted.
