The examination will be held as per schedule in all other states. RRB published a notice on all its regional websites informing candidates that the exam will be held as per the previous schedule.
Candidates have been informed individually too through SMS and email. Several states have declared half-day holiday after former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee's death yesterday which is why RRB issued the clarification that exams would be held as per the schedule.
