RRB ALP CBT-1 Answer Key 2026 Out — Objections Till 19 Nov

RRB ALP CBT-1 Answer Key 2026 — live from 12 November, objections till 19 November

The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) have released the provisional answer key, question paper and response sheet for the Assistant Loco Pilot (ALP) CBT-1 examination under Centralised Employment Notice CEN 01/2026. The answer key went live on 12 November 2026 at 7:00 PM and can be viewed by logging in at rrb.digialm.com or through the regional RRB websites with the registration number and password or date of birth. The CBT-1 examination was held from 3 to 5 November 2026, and 8,40,944 candidates appeared, as per RanchiPortal.

Objections

Candidates can raise objections from 12 November to 19 November 2026, with the last date being 19 November 2026 at 11:59 PM. The objection fee is Rs. 50 per question plus applicable bank charges. The fee is refunded, less bank charges, if the objection is found valid. The decision of the RRBs is final.

Exam pattern

The CBT-1 paper had 75 questions for 75 marks, with 1 mark for each correct answer and a deduction of one-third of a mark for each wrong answer, and no penalty for unanswered questions. The total vacancies for the recruitment are 14,627, revised upwards from 11,127.

What next

The CBT-1 result date has not been announced — December is expected in some reports but is unconfirmed, so no result date is stated here. Candidates should check the key and response sheet, raise objections only where they are confident, and keep their login credentials safe for the result.

Verification basis

This post rests on secondary consensus: six or more independent outlets — the Times of India, Testbook, Prepp, PracticeMock, GovtJobDeck and RanchiPortal — all cite the official RRB answer-key notice with identical dates and fee. The official notice PDF itself could not be read: the URL is established, but the host returned no response and the page would not open in the browser. This basis is stated plainly.
