RAS question
Which IIT released the GATE 2026 provisional answer keys on February 22?
Correct answer: (B) IIT Guwahati.
IIT Guwahati released the GATE 2026 provisional answer keys on February 22.
Explanation
IIT Guwahati conducted GATE 2026 and released the provisional answer keys on February 22. The official GATE 2026 portal names the organising institute as Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati and announces the release of the master question papers and answer keys. The official answer-key process opened the keys to candidate challenges during the notified window. That challenge stage made the release provisional: candidates first checked the published keys and could contest them before the answer-key process was finalised.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) IIT Bombay did not conduct GATE 2026 or release the GATE 2026 provisional answer keys on February 22.
- (C) IIT Delhi was not the organising institute for GATE 2026 and did not release the GATE 2026 provisional answer keys on February 22.
- (D) IIT Madras was not the organising institute for GATE 2026 and did not release the GATE 2026 provisional answer keys on February 22.
Concept
Current-affairs tracking of examination authorities and official notification ownership matters for RAS preparation. The issuing authority is the verifiable administrative fact behind an exam update.
