The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has created a committee to look into the concerns raised by students.

What is the issue?

The RRB released an employment notification for the Non – Technical category in 2019. The exam got postponed because of COVID. The exam was recently held on January 14 – 15, 2022.

The students having concerns over the results can file complaints to the committee by mailing to [email protected]. The aspirants shall submit their complaints till February 16, 2022. And the committee will submit its recommendations by March 4, 2022.
Also, the committee is to set up camps in the major protest areas, that is, in the North Central Railway and Allahabad.
The regional RRBs will compile the complaints submitted by students and will send them to the committee.

What are the concerns raised by the students?

The students are now protesting on the following issues:

The recruitment process allows candidates with high qualification to compete with candidates of average or mediocre qualification.
