Hello every rrb rrc aspirants

                                          RRB&RRC both are danda nakka dannuku nakka...........They select candidates upto medical exam after that they rject candidates without any particular reason......In rrb candidates passing typingtest also rejected..........rrc  select candidates who pass in both Exam & pet but candidates who qualify in these both also rejected without any notifications any particular reason.........And both boards RRB RRC take so long time (ie)If a boy studying 6std when he passes +2 exam then only 1stage exam results will be published..........LAZY PEOPLE TRAIN LAZY ..BOARD CELL ALSO VERY LAZY..........

Both rrb&rrc will not publish the marks of selected notselected candidates mark.............All depts like ssc publish marks...........but railway are NOT GENUINE IN PUBLISHING RESULTS MARKS....It is duty of board to publish marks...... But RRB RRC not publishing any marks.....Question may arise take long long long long long duration to publish results..........If they are genuine means then publish the marks why they donot publish marks with cutoff.............

qualification  please help me sir ...and please reply on [email protected]

  

First of all you have to understand that your qualification does not give any edge over others in Railway promotions. Because you have degree you can just write exams for Graduate level posts as and when they are called.
