Hello Aspirant,
Your candidature is more likely to get cancelled. They will ask for an OBC certificate failing to submit it will eventually cancel your candidature for this exam. Moreover, the cut off for different categories is different and as your entered OBC as your category, you cleared the exam and the cut off for the general category must have been higher than that. It is also not fair to other students as well. These railway and other government exams are very strict in their conduct and will not accept any discrepancy or error. The RRB NTPC exam is administered on the national level by the Railway Recruitment Board to provide jobs as personnel for graduate and undergraduate posts under Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC) in several zonal railways and production units of Indian Railways.

Hello,
Yes, E-Aadhaar Card is valid document so you can carry a colour print out copy of E-adhaar card generated from UIDAI website to the examination center. But the colour print out of Voter ID cannot be accepted. Your voter ID must be a PVC Voter ID card, a colour print out of it on A4 size paper will not be accepted so we would suggest you to carry E-Adhaar card instead of Voter ID card to RRB NTPC examination center.
