The Railway Board has decided to cancel all pending job selections for Group C positions that were not approved by March 4, 2025. Officials say this is due to “irregularities” found in the selection process.
In a message sent to railway leaders on Wednesday, the board explained that, because of problems noticed in recent selections, they will review the selection process for Group C jobs. They have stated that any pending selections or promotions (which are called LDCEs and GDCEs) not completed by the deadline will be considered canceled.
No new selection processes will start until further notice. More information about how selections will be managed will be shared later.
Earlier, the Railway Ministry took an important step by getting the Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) to conduct all promotion exams with a centralized computer-based test. This change comes after the CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) arrested 26 railway officials in Uttar Pradesh for allegedly leaking exam papers and seized ₹1.17 crore in cash during their investigation.
Before these changes, railway divisions and zones managed promotion exams on their own, leading to many reports of unfair practices and corruption.
