Attention all candidates! The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has just dropped some crucial news for those gearing up for the RRB ALP 2026 exam. But here's where it gets controversial... or at least, a little confusing for beginners.
The RRB ALP City Intimation Slip 2026 is now live on the official website, rrbcdg.gov.in, and other regional portals. This slip is your first official notification about the exam, giving you the lowdown on the city and date of your upcoming CBT 1 assessment.
The Big Reveal:
- Exam Dates: February 16-18, 2026
- City Intimation Slip Release: February 3, 2026
- Admit Card Release: 4 days before the exam
And this is the part most people miss... the RRB ALP City Intimation Slip is not your final admit card! It's a preliminary notice, giving you a heads-up on the city and date of your exam, but it's not valid on the day of the test.
So, what's on this slip? It'll tell you your name, the city and state where you'll be taking the exam, the scheduled date, and whether you're in the morning or afternoon shift.
But wait, there's more! After you've downloaded your city slip, it's time to get organized. If your exam center is in another city, now's the time to book those tickets and hotels. Also, make sure you have valid ID proof ready for the big day.
The RRB ALP Admit Card 2026, which contains all the crucial details about you and your exam center, will be released on January 9, 2026, just 4 days before the exam.
