The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) are yet to confirm the RRB Group D 2025 exam dates following a stay order issued by the Delhi High Court. The recruitment process remains on hold as the matter has been transferred to the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT). Candidates are advised to rely only on official sources for updates regarding the final exam schedule.
RRB Group D 2025 Exam: Ongoing Court Proceedings
The RRB Group D recruitment exam was initially planned to be held from November 17 to December 31, 2025, across multiple cities in India. However, the Delhi High Court intervened after petitions were filed challenging certain aspects of the recruitment process, prompting a temporary suspension of the examination. Subsequently, the case was transferred to the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) for detailed examination. The CAT hearing took place on November 4, 2025, during which discussions between the Railway Board and the Tribunal extended for nearly one and a half hours. Despite the extensive deliberation, the final verdict has not yet been released. According to officials aware of the matter, the CAT is expected to deliver its decision soon, which will determine whether the RRB Group D examination proceeds as per the original schedule or is postponed further.
RRB Group D 2025 Court Case Update
Sources suggest that once the Tribunal gives its final nod, RRBs will announce a revised exam schedule through their official portals. The Railway Recruitment Board has already completed logistical arrangements for exam centres and is ready to conduct the test once approval is granted.
Fake Notice on Social Media Raises Confusion
Amid the ongoing legal proceedings, a fake notice regarding the RRB Group D 2025 exam dates has gone viral on various social media platforms and Telegram groups. The fabricated document claims that the RRB Group D exam will now be held from January 4 to March 17, 2026. However, no such information has been published on any of the official RRB websites or the Indian Railways’ recruitment portal. Officials have clarified that any notice not available on official channels should be considered false. Candidates are strongly advised to verify details only through the official RRB website corresponding to their region.
RRB’s Official Advisory
The Railway Recruitment Board has not released any new circular or exam update following the court’s stay order. Once the CAT delivers its verdict, RRBs are expected to issue an official statement outlining the next steps for the recruitment process. Until then, candidates are urged to:
- Check only official RRB websites for updates.
- Avoid circulating or believing unverified notices.
- Keep registration details ready for quick access once the results or revised schedule are released.
