The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) is expected to release the answer key for the Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) Computer-Based Test (CBT) 2 for graduate-level posts very soon. Students who appeared for this important railway recruitment exam can look forward to checking their answers. The provisional answer key is likely to be available by October 18, 2025 . This key will allow candidates to review their performance and raise any objections if they find errors.
The RRB NTPC exam is a significant opportunity for many young people in India. It helps them get government jobs in various non-technical roles within the Indian Railways. These roles include junior clerks, accounts clerks, commercial cum ticket clerks, goods guards, and station masters. Thousands of students apply for these jobs, making the competition tough. The release of the answer key is a crucial step after the exam, as it helps students understand how well they did before the final results come out.
What is the RRB NTPC CBT 2 Answer Key?
The answer key is a document that contains the correct answers to all the questions asked in the RRB NTPC CBT 2 exam. When RRB releases this key, it will first be a 'provisional' key. This means it is a draft version. Candidates can download it, compare it with their own answers, and calculate their likely scores. It acts as a guide to help students get an idea of their performance.
Why is the Provisional Answer Key Important?
- Check Answers: Students can match their answers with the official correct answers.
- Estimate Scores: It helps in roughly calculating the marks obtained in the exam.
- Raise Objections: If a student feels that any answer in the key is wrong, they can challenge it. This is a very important step to ensure fairness.

You will need to submit your objections online through the same portal where you download the answer key. Make sure to provide proper proof or justification for your objection. RRB officials will review these objections before releasing the final answer key.
Beware of Unofficial Answer Keys
Many third-party websites might release "unofficial" answer keys right after the exam. While these can give you a quick estimate of your scores, it's important to remember a few things:
- These unofficial keys might not always be accurate.
