Over 1.26 crore (1,26,30,885) candidates have applied for the RRB NTPC exam to be conducted for 1.3 lakh posts. It has been over nine months since the RRB had released NTPC notification, however, there is no update on when the exam will be conducted.

While it is noteworthy that it has been over nine months since the Railways Recruitment Board released the NTPC notification, there has been no update on the exam date and schedule.
