How to Download the RRB Group D Exam City Slip and E-Call Letter

The official notice confirms that both the city/date intimation link and the e-call letter will be published on the official websites of all RRBs, not on this or any third-party platform.

1. Visit the official website of your respective Railway Recruitment Board (or www.rrbapply.gov.in).

Is Aadhaar Mandatory for the RRB Group D Exam?

Yes. Aadhaar-linked biometric authentication is mandatory at the exam centre before entry into the exam hall. Candidates must carry their original Aadhaar card or a printout of an e-verified Aadhaar. If a candidate has not already completed Aadhaar authentication, this should be done by logging in at www.rrbapply.gov.in.

What Should Candidates Check Regarding Aadhaar Before Exam Day?

Even candidates who already verified their Aadhaar during the application stage are advised to ensure their Aadhaar remains in an unlocked condition in the UIDAI system before arriving at the exam centre, to avoid delays during registration and entry.
