Watch Out Before You Apply
- Choose only one RRB. Applying to two or more RRBs gets all your applications rejected and can bar you from future railway exams.
- Keep your mobile number and personal email active throughout, because RRBs cannot change these details later.
- Your name, father's and mother's names and date of birth must match your Class 10 certificate exactly, so check before you submit.
- Upload a live photo on a plain white background and a signature in black ink on white paper, as specified in the notice; otherwise the form can be rejected.
