Overview
- The Railway Recruitment Board’s Feb 10 notice advances and consolidates CBT-1 to February 19, 20 and 25 with three 90-minute shifts each day, replacing an earlier plan that stretched into March.
- Exam-city intimation slips are available on regional RRB portals, showing the allotted city, date and shift to help candidates plan travel and reporting.
- E-call letters will be issued about four days before each exam date and will carry the exact venue and roll number, and candidates must appear only in their assigned shift at the designated centre.
- Centres will enforce Aadhaar-linked biometric authentication, so candidates must carry an original or e-verified Aadhaar and ensure their UIDAI profile is unlocked to avoid mismatches.
- Outlets report differing vacancy totals for this recruitment—2,570 (Indian Express), 2,585 with increases in Chennai and Jammu-Srinagar (Hindustan Times), and 2,588 (News18)—reflecting an unresolved discrepancy.
