The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has made available the answer key, response sheets, and question papers for the CBT-1 examination associated with the Assistant Loco Pilot (ALP) recruitment for 2026. Candidates are encouraged to verify their answers and may raise objections if they find any discrepancies in the questions. This process is entirely online and must be completed within the designated timeframe.

The ALP recruitment examination took place from February 13 to February 18, and again on March 11, 2026. A significant number of candidates participated, eagerly awaiting the answer key's release prior to the results announcement.

Candidates who notice any errors in the answer key can submit objections. A fee of ₹50 is required for each question challenged. If the objection is validated, the fee will be refunded.

The window for viewing the answer key, downloading response sheets, and submitting objections will remain open until 5:00 PM on March 26, 2026. After this time, the link will be disabled, making it essential for candidates to adhere to this deadline.

To access the answer key, candidates should visit the official website and click on the login link. They will need to enter their registration number and date of birth. Once logged in, the answer key and response sheet will be displayed, allowing for download and saving for future reference.

The recruitment process for ALP generally includes a two-stage Computer-Based Test (CBT), followed by a Computer-Based Aptitude Test (CBAT), document verification, and a medical examination. Candidates who successfully navigate all these stages will be considered for final recruitment.
