Important Dates for Your Exam
To help candidates prepare, RRBs will release important information before the exam. You can check your exam city and the exact date assigned to you through an 'exam city intimation slip'. This link will be available on the official RRB websites starting 10 days before your exam date . For candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) categories, this slip will also include details for downloading their free travel pass, which helps them reach the exam centre.
Following this, your official admission ticket, known as the E-Call Letter or admit card, will be available for download. You can get your E-Call Letter from the official websites four days before your exam date . Remember to download it, print it out, and bring it with you to the examination hall. It acts as your entry pass.

Mandatory Aadhaar Verification
A crucial step for all candidates is the Aadhaar linked biometric verification. This process will happen at the exam centre itself, just before you enter. It is a mandatory security check. To ensure a smooth entry, candidates must carry their original Aadhaar card . If you do not have the physical card, a printout of your e-verified Aadhaar is also accepted.
The RRBs have also emphasized that your Aadhaar card must be in an 'unlocked' state within the UIDAI system on the day of the exam. This is important even if you had verified your Aadhaar during the application process. Candidates who have not completed their Aadhaar verification are urged to do so immediately. You can find instructions and complete the verification through the official website, rrbapply.gov.in . Failing to meet this requirement might prevent you from appearing for the exam.
Where to Find Official Information
It is very important for all candidates to get their information only from the official websites of the Railway Recruitment Boards. There are many unofficial sources online, but only the official RRB websites provide correct and reliable updates. Always double-check any news or dates on these official platforms to avoid confusion or misinformation.
Stay focused on your preparation for the CBT 2 exam. Mark the date, December 20, 2025 , and ensure all your documents, especially your Aadhaar card, are ready. Good luck to all the students appearing for the RRB NTPC CBT 2 exam.
