RRB Group D Admit Card 2021 Date

As per the Railway Recruitment Cell (RRC) Centralized Employment Notification (CEN) 01/2019, all RRB admit cards will be issued 10 days before the exam. 

However in all the latest railway recruitment 2018 as well as 2021, the RRB admit cards are issued exactly 4 days before the exam, and exam city intimation is published 10 days before the exam. 

Therefore for RRB Group D 2021 also, the admit card release date is expected 4 days before the exam i.e. in the April 2021 (if the exams do start in April 2021). The exact dates will be available only when exam dates are announced. As more than 1.15 crore candidates have applied, it is expected that the exam dates will be spread over one month at least.

RRB Group D Admit Card 2021 by SMS and Email

Railway Recruitment Boards send sms and email to all eligible candidates about their admit card release. Sms and email are sent to the registered mobile number and email ID of candidate. However some times, candidates may not get them due to different reasons – like sms not delivered, email in spam, or technical issues. 

So candidates should keep checking their sms and email for message on availability of RRB Group D Admit Card.
