The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has officially announced a significant rescheduling of the RRB NTPC Graduate Level Exam 2025 for a specific group of candidates. According to the latest notice, the examination, which was initially conducted on December 30, 2025, will now be re-held on February 11, 2026. This change applies exclusively to the December 30 session, with no alterations reported for other scheduled exam dates.
Revised Schedule and Candidate Instructions
Candidates who appeared for the exam on December 28, 2025, are urged to review the updated timetable through the official websites of their respective regional RRBs. The board emphasizes the importance of regularly monitoring these portals for fresh updates and detailed instructions to avoid any confusion or last-minute issues.
Exam City Details and E-Call Letters
RRB has clarified that links for viewing exam city information, exam dates, and downloading travel authority documents for SC and ST candidates will be activated 10 days prior to the new exam date. These resources will be accessible on all regional RRB websites, ensuring candidates have ample time to prepare.
E-call letters, which function as admit cards, will be released four days before the exam date specified in the exam city and date intimation link. It is crucial for candidates to download these e-call letters in advance and carry them to the exam centre. Students are advised against waiting until the final day and should frequently check their regional RRB website for notifications to stay informed.
Typing Skill Test: Key Guidelines and Requirements
Following the written examination, candidates must participate in the Computer-Based Typing Skill Test. This test requires typing a minimum of 300 words in English or 250 words in Hindi. English is set as the default typing language, while candidates opting for Hindi must be proficient with Krutidev or Mangal fonts to ensure compatibility.
Test Structure and Evaluation Process
The typing test session is divided into three distinct parts. Initially, candidates will receive one minute for typing practice to familiarize themselves with the keyboard layout. This is followed by a 30-second break, after which the main typing test commences, lasting 10 minutes and serving as the evaluation component.
This skill test is designed to assess typing speed and accuracy. If a candidate completes typing the passage early, they are permitted to restart from the beginning within the same 10-minute timeframe. However, it is mandatory to type the entire passage at least once; failure to do so within the allotted time will result in disqualification.
Next Steps for Candidates
Candidates are strongly advised to thoroughly read all instructions provided on the official RRB websites. Regular checks for updates regarding exam city details, e-call letters, and travel authority are essential for a seamless exam experience. For comprehensive information, visiting the official website of their respective regional Railway Recruitment Boards is recommended.
Staying updated and preparing in advance can significantly reduce last-minute stress and contribute to a smooth and successful examination process. Proactive engagement with official communications will help candidates navigate the rescheduled exam efficiently.
