RRB ALP CBT 2 Answer Key 2026 Released; Objections Open
Many people in India want to work as train drivers, which is officially called Assistant Loco Pilot.
First they have to pass a big test.
The second part of that test was held on July 28, 2026.
Now the Railway Recruitment Board, the group that runs the test, has put the answer key online.
This lets candidates check their answers and count their own scores.
If someone thinks an answer marked correct is actually wrong, they can complain from August 5 to August 11, 2026.
Complaining costs 50 rupees for each question, but the money is returned if the complaint is correct.
For every right answer you get 1 point, and for every wrong answer you lose a third of a point.
Questions that are skipped give no points.
The final results and cut-offs will come out in September 2026.
The Railway Recruitment Board released the provisional answer key, question papers and recorded responses for the ALP CBT 2 exam held on July 28, 2026 under CEN 01/2025.
Candidates can access their response sheets via the official RRB candidate login or DigiALM portal using their registration number and date of birth or password.
Objections to the provisional answer key can be raised from August 5 to August 11, 2026, at a fee of Rs 50 per question, refundable if the challenge is found valid.
The marking scheme awards +1 for a correct answer, -1/3 for an incorrect answer and no marks for unattempted questions; final scores will be based on the revised answer key.
The final answer key, CBT 2 scorecards and cut-offs are expected in September 2026, while the CBAT schedule is likely to be announced in September or October 2026.
