Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) have made important announcements regarding two key recruitment drives – the Assistant Loco Pilot (ALP) 2024 and Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) exams. Candidates who have been waiting for updates can now access essential information related to these exams via the official RRB website.

RRB ALP Answer Keys Released for 2024

RRBs have released the provisional answer keys for the 2024 ALP examination. Candidates who appeared for the Assistant Loco Pilot recruitment test can now download the answer keys, along with their question papers and recorded responses, from the official RRB website.

The objection window for the provisional answer key opened on December 5, 2024, and will remain open until 10:00 AM on December 10, 2024. This allows candidates to raise objections if they believe any discrepancies are present in the answer key. However, due to heavy traffic on the website, candidates may experience delays when trying to access the page. It is advised to check back after some time if the site is temporarily inaccessible.

The ALP recruitment process consists of five stages: two Computer-Based Tests (CBT 1 and CBT 2), a Computer-Based Aptitude Test (CBAT), document verification (DV), and a medical examination (ME). The recruitment drive aims to fill a total of 18,799 Assistant Loco Pilot positions across Indian Railways. Candidates are encouraged to regularly check the RRB website for further updates.
