According to the Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) norms, candidates with a visual impairment of -3.00 diopters or worse in one eye are not eligible for certain posts, including Station Master.


However, there's a possibility you might still be eligible under certain conditions:


- Corrected Vision: If your vision is corrected to 6/9 in the better eye and 6/12 in the worse eye with glasses, you might be eligible.

- Medical Standards: You'll need to meet the medical standards prescribed for the post of Station Master.


To confirm your eligibility, I recommend:


1. Checking the RRB NTPC Notification: Review the official notification for the RRB NTPC eligibility criteria and medical standards.

2. Consulting an Eye Specialist: Get a professional opinion from an eye specialist to determine the extent of your visual impairment and whether it can be corrected to meet the eligibility criteria.

3. Contacting RRB Authorities: Reach out to the RRB authorities or a railway recruitment cell to clarify any doubts and seek guidance on your eligibility.


Remember, it's essential to ensure you meet the eligibility criteria before applying for the exam.

Yes, after clearing CBT 1 in the RRB NTPC (CEN No. 5/2024) exam, you are eligible to appear for CBT 2. The candidates who qualify CBT 1 will be shortlisted for CBT 2, which focuses on specific knowledge related to the applied post. Stay updated with official notifications and prepare according to the syllabus for the post you applied for.

You should obtain certificate of obc non creamy layer then apply to rrb NTPC to avail the benefit of reservation quota.
