RRB Group D Result 2026: The Ministry of Railways has shared a significant update regarding the much-awaited Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) Group D result. According to the ministry, the declaration of results has been delayed due to an ongoing legal matter before the Telangana High Court concerning the weightage of Act Apprentice marks in the preparation of the final merit list.
Candidates who appeared for the recruitment examination are eagerly awaiting the outcome, as the final result can only be announced after the court delivers its judgment. The Railway Ministry has indicated that the verdict is expected shortly, and the results may be released tentatively in June 2026.
The delay in the publication of the Group D results stems from a case pending before the Telangana High Court. The matter relates to whether and how weightage should be given to Act Apprentice marks while preparing the final merit list for recruitment.
In a recent update shared through social media, the Ministry of Railways stated that the result process is currently on hold until the court issues its decision. Once the judgment is pronounced, the Railway Recruitment Boards will proceed with the result declaration in accordance with the court's directions.
While no official result date has been confirmed, the Railway Ministry has suggested that the results are likely to be announced in June 2026, subject to the timely disposal of the court case.
Candidates are advised to regularly check the official RRB websites for the latest notifications and result-related announcements.
To move ahead in the recruitment process, candidates must secure the prescribed minimum qualifying marks in the Computer-Based Test (CBT).
| Category | Minimum Qualifying Marks |
| UR | 40% |
| EWS | 40% |
| OBC (NCL) | 30% |
| SC | 30% |
