CBSE cancelled the CTET 2026 Paper 2 exam at two Vaishali centres due to unavoidable circumstances. A re‑examination will be held within 15 days for affected candidates.
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has cancelled the CTET 2026 Paper 2 examination at two exam centres in Vaishali (Hajipur), Bihar, due to unavoidable circumstances, the board announced on 7 February 2026.
CTET 2026 Paper 2 Cancellation and Re‑Exam Plan
CTET 2026 has been conducted across 140 cities nationwide in offline OMR‑based mode over 7 and 8 February 2026. The Paper 2 session, intended for candidates aiming to teach Classes VI to VIII, was scheduled in the morning shift. While the exam proceeded smoothly at 1,801 out of 1,803 centres, CBSE decided to cancel the session at two Vaishali centres due to issues that prevented the examination from being conducted fairly.
The affected locations were:
- St. John’s Academy, Basmati Nagar (Centre Code 125016)
- Lakshya International Academy (Centre Code 125014)
CBSE has assured that candidates allotted to these two centres will be informed of a re‑examination date within the next 15 days. The revised schedule will be communicated individually to the concerned candidates.
CTET 2026 Exam Details and Aspirant Information
The Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) is a qualifying examination that determines eligibility for teaching positions in central and recognised schools, including those under Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti, and various state education boards. CTET 2026 has seen record participation, with over 25.3 lakh candidates registered for the February session. The exam is offered in 20 languages, spanning regional and national options to ensure broad accessibility. Candidates have been advised to carry their CTET 2026 admit card and a valid original photo ID to the examination centre. Admit cards for the session were released on 5 February 2026 on the official CTET website ctet.nic.in.
What Affected Candidates Should Do Next?
Those whose Paper 2 exam was cancelled must stay updated with the communications from CBSE regarding the re‑exam date. The board has expressed regret for the inconvenience caused and assured that all necessary details for the makeup test will be shared soon. All other candidates who completed Paper 2 at the unaffected centres can proceed with the remaining process and await their results once CBSE concludes evaluation and releases final answer keys. Students and stakeholders should regularly check official CTET notifications and the board’s website for further updates and confirmation of schedules.
