RRB NTPC 2025 Answer Key: Here’s How to Check and Raise Objections
The long wait for candidates who appeared in the RRB NTPC Graduate Level Recruitment Exam 2025 is about to end. The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) is expected to release the official answer key for the Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) exam soon. Once published, candidates will be able to check their responses directly on the official RRB website by logging in with their registration number and date of birth.
When Will the RRB NTPC 2025 Answer Key Be Released?
While the board has not announced an official date, sources suggest that the provisional answer key could be released anytime in mid-September 2025. Along with the answer key, RRB will also provide the candidates’ response sheets and the question paper for reference.
Candidates will be allowed to raise objections against any question or answer they find incorrect. Usually, the board provides a window of two to three days for submitting challenges.
Objection Process and Fees
If a candidate wishes to challenge an answer, they will need to pay a fee of ₹50 per question, along with applicable bank charges. The fee can be paid online while submitting the objection. If the objection is found valid after review, the objection fee (excluding bank charges) will be refunded back to the candidate’s account.
This process ensures transparency and gives candidates an opportunity to ensure fair evaluation.
