Railway Recruitment Board Releases Exam City Slip for NTPC Undergraduate Exam 2026
Why it matters
The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has taken a key step in the 2026 recruitment cycle for Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) by publishing the exam city slips for undergraduate-level posts. These slips were made available on April 28, 2026, through the centralized portal of the RRB Chandigarh and other regional RRB websites. The city slip is a preliminary document that provides candidates with the name of the city where their examination center is located and the specific date of their shift, though it is not the final admit card.
Releasing the city slip approximately 10 to 12 days before the start of the examination is a standard procedural practice by the RRB to assist candidates in making travel and lodging arrangements. This is particularly relevant for the NTPC exam, which involves millions of applicants competing for vacancies such as Junior Clerk cum Typist, Accounts Clerk cum Typist, and Train Clerk. The final admit cards, which contain the exact venue name and address, are typically released four days prior to the individual candidate's exam date. Candidates are advised to use their registration number and date of birth to download the slip.
