To The Director, IIT Guwahati Guwahati, Assam Subject: Urgent Representation: Concerns Regarding GATE 2026 Results Integrity and Request for Transparency Respected Sir, I am writing to formally express the growing concerns and collective apprehensions of the GATE 2026 aspirant community regarding the recently declared results. Significant anomalies have been noted in the topper lists across several major branches, which have raised questions regarding the sanctity and fairness of the examination process this year. To restore faith in the meritocratic foundations of the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering, I urge the organizing authorities at IIT Guwahati to take the following immediate actions: • Public Disclosure of Top 100 Rankers: We request that the names, GATE registration numbers, and marks of the top 100 rankers for all papers be made public on the official portal. Transparency at this level is essential to ensure that the results are verifiable by the academic community. • Verification of Scribble Pads: We propose a mandatory cross-verification of the scribble pads used by the toppers during the examination. This will confirm whether the rough work and problem-solving steps align with the high scores achieved and the time taken for each section. • CCTV Footage Audit: We request a thorough review of the CCTV footage from the specific exam centers where the toppers appeared. This audit should focus on identifying any suspicious activity or breaches of protocol that may have occurred during the session. GATE is a gateway to prestigious higher education and public sector opportunities; any shadow of doubt regarding its results affects the future of lakhs of hardworking students. We trust that IIT Guwahati, known for its commitment to excellence, will address these concerns with the gravity they deserve and provide a transparent resolution. I look forward to a prompt response and a public clarification on these matters. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your GATE Registration Number] [Your Phone Number] Keep Sharing- @doubt_master_civil
