New Delhi. The Ministry of Railways has said that the result of Level-1 examination of Non-Technical Popular Category i.e. NTPC (Non Technical Popular Categories) of Railway Recruitment Board i.e.
RRB will be released by January 15. Actually, RRB had taken out the vacancy in January 2019 to give more than one lakh jobs. Railways had claimed that the recruitment process for all these posts would be completed by December 2019. But about 2.5 crore applications and then Covid-19 has derailed this recruitment process many times and till now it is not clear how long this job will be given. Therefore, apart from the examinees, questions have been raised many times at the political level as well.
More than 2 crore applications
Railway Recruitment Board had released recruitment for about 1.5 lakh posts in January 2019. This vacancy in the Railways came after 4 years, due to which more than 2 crore 40 lakh applications were made. RRB had released vacancies for 35281 posts for Non-Technical Popular Category in January 2019. Under this, jobs are to be given on posts like station master, guard, commercial clerk, normal clerk and train clerk. But for so many posts, 12630885 applications came to the Railways.
Impact of Covid
Railways conducted CBT i.e. Computer Best Test for this. This exam got affected due to Covid-19. The exam was conducted in 8 phases in 208 cities across 33 states and union territories. Out of these, the examination of 7 phases was conducted before Covid.
About one lakh objections on questions
Railways also called for objection related to any question in this examination. From 18.08.21 to 23.08.21, Railways got online objections regarding 93263 questions. At present, its investigation is going on. Out of these, the total marks will be added by removing the wrong questions as per the appropriate. Only after that the merit list for the second phase will be released on January 15. After that the candidates will be called for the second stage CBT i.e. Computer Best Test. After the results of Level-2, the process of medical examination will be completed. Only after that the successful candidate will be given the job.
Technical mistakes in filling the form
At the same time, the biggest vacancy of Railways was taken out for more than one lakh (103769) posts. Under this, recruitment is to be done in all zonal railways and production units of railways. For this, Railways got more than 1 crore (11567284) applications. But in these applications made online, a large number of technically incorrect photographs and signatures were used. Due to which about 5 and a half lakh (548829) applications were canceled.
CAT order
After a dispute over this, the matter reached the CAT i.e. Central Administrative Tribunal. After the order of CAT, Railways will provide an online link to such candidates by 15 December 2021. On this, a technically wrong photo or signature can be changed. Only after that the list of successful applicants will be final and the recruitment process for these posts will be back on track.
