Candidates who are not satisfied with a question, option or provisional answer key can raise an objection through the designated online objection facility.

The objection fee for challenging the provisional answer key is ₹50 per question, along with applicable bank service charges. Candidates can submit the fee through the payment options provided on the objection portal.

Therefore, candidates should submit objections carefully and within the prescribed timeline.
Candidates can use the provisional answer key and their recorded responses to calculate their probable score before the RRB NTPC UG CBT 2 result is announced.
First, candidates should compare every marked response with the provisional correct answer. They can then calculate marks according to the applicable RRB NTPC CBT-II marking scheme and account for negative marking wherever applicable.
The calculated score should be treated as a probable score only. It should not be considered the final RRB NTPC UG CBT 2 score or result.
After the objection window closes, the Railway Recruitment Board will examine the challenges submitted by candidates. The final answer key is expected to be prepared after the objection process, following the board's prescribed procedure.
The RRB NTPC UG CBT 2 result and subsequent selection stages will be announced separately by the Railway Recruitment Board. Candidates should rely on official RRB notices for the final result date and further selection process.
