RRB Group D Exam Dates 2022 announced

Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) have announced its decision on RRB Group D 2022 exam. The decision has been announced in favour of students. The boards will conduct only single stage CBT for RRB Group D exam. The CBT exam of RRB Group D will be conducted in July 2022. As there will be no CBT 2, the boards will adopt percentile based normalization method to select candidates for the further rounds of selection.

Important Highlights on RRB Group D exam

Some of the important decisions taken by the RRBs on the RRB Group D exam are given below:

• RRB Group exam will be conducted at single stage. There will be no second stage CBT
• RRC wise CBT will be held for Level-1. Also maximum available capacity is recommended to be used, to significantly reduce the number of shifts involved for each RRC and to speed up the examination process.
• Percentile based normalization, which is simple and easy to understand, will be used wherever the number of shifts involved is more than one
• Medical standards as prescribed in Indian Railway Medical Manual (IRMM) will be used for different posts of Level-1
• Any available Income and Asset Certificate for candidates who have applied under Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), will be considered as valid
• It has been decided to follow revised methodology with special conditions for conduct of CBT for Level-1 as there is no CBT 2 exam
• The methodology will involve mobilising additional infrastructure and logistics to conduct CBT for Level-1 with significant increase in per shift requirement
• Efforts will be made to have the exam conducting agency (ECA) on board to conduct the CBT for Level-1 as early as possible
