Reaching the exam center late is a nightmare you want to avoid. The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) is very strict about gate closure timings. Even being 1 minute late means they will not allow you to enter the exam hall. To help you plan your travel and reach safely, we have detailed the RRB JE Shift Timings 2026 below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
