If second stage CBT HELD BY rrb this is the great initiative for fair requirements process in rrb..so that I think it should be necessary.
Yes good idea
It’s a very good idea for selection process to coduct 2nd CBT.
I really very happy for that.
Yes, it would very beneficial if these all process will done with in a couple of month otherwise it is worthless.
No it is not suitable for the post of group d.
Yes, this is right decisions
If they conduct cbt 2 for group d than the physical test should get cancelled…why there three tests for group d if there is only 2 tests for group c that is cbt1and 2..or the railways doesn’t want to give jobs better to remove bjp next year
Super bro, ,,,
cbt2 idea is not fair … अगर जॉब देना ही नही है तो निकालो नही वेकैंसी ये सब क्या है?
अगर सीबीटी2 कराना ही था तो पहले नोटिफिकेशन में देना चाहिए था।
ऐसा ही ASM 2015 के एग्जाम में नही कराना था पर सीबीटी 2आरआरबी ने कराया जो कि सही नही था। उस एग्जाम में कई लोग सीबीटी1 में 90 नंबर लाये थे पर सीबीटी 2 में कम ही नम्बर आये और सेलेक्शन से पॉइंट्स नम्बर में रह गए ।
RRB को पहले ही नोटिफिकेशन में देना चाहिए जो भी प्रोसिसस हो ये बाद में प्लान करना सही नही है ।
yes it is a good plan for CBT 2
No, it’s not good idea to take second CBT for group d, hardly we are triyng to pass CBT 1 , and govt is thinking to take second CBT, it will be very hard . ..
Good idea huge of student so conduct cbt2
And fraud BHI kamega
