The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) recently, on April 26, activated the link to check the exam city center for the upcoming RRB NTPC CBT 2 2022 exam. Following this candidates who have cleared the RRB NTPC CBT 1 were able to check their RRB NTPC CBT 2 exam date and city. However, soon after the city center list was out, scores of applicants complained that they have been allotted exam city for CBT 2 outside their home state.

Applicants added that due to this many of them will have to face hardship to take their exams. Others also claimed that as their allotted centers are far from their home state many might lose the opportunity to appear for their exams.

Many such aggrieve candidates have also taken to different social media platforms including Twitter to urge the examination authorities to look into the matter and change exam centers for students.

It has been noticed that applicants who had applied for the exam from the Kolkata zone, have been allotted exam city for CBT 2 in Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. Other candidates who belong to Bengaluru, Karnataka zone, have complained that they have been allotted CBT 2 exam centre in Amravati, Maharashtra.

Taking to Twitter applicants complained that,

My hometown Kolkata
Cbt exam centre -Vishakhapattanam
Centre of exam chosen -Kolkata
Pls rethink and change the city.
