For security, open the answer-key facility only through the link published on your regional RRB's official website. The login page may be hosted on the examination service provider's portal.
The link is available only for the notified period. Save your response details and review the provisional key well before 17 November 2026.
If you believe a question, answer option or provisional answer key is incorrect, submit an objection through the online facility provided by the RRBs. The objection must be submitted before the deadline and the prescribed fee must be paid for each question challenged.
Follow the detailed instructions displayed in the official objection portal. Submit a separate challenge for each question you wish to dispute, wherever the portal requires it.

The fee is charged per question, not as a single fee for the complete objection submission. The RRB notice states that the amount paid against a valid objection will be refunded after deduction of applicable bank charges. The refund will be made to the payment account used by the candidate.
After the objection window closes, the RRBs will examine the challenges received and take a decision on the questions, options and provisional keys. The Board's decision on objections will be final and binding, as stated in the notice. Candidates should watch their regional RRB website for the final answer key, CBT-I result and further recruitment-stage announcements.
The final answer key and CBT-I result date should not be assumed until the RRBs publish an official notice. The provisional answer key is intended for response checking and objection submission; it is not the final result or merit list.
