RSSB Exam Calendar 2026 Revised: CET 12th Level on 1-3 December, CET Graduation in January 2027
RSSB परीक्षा कैलेंडर 2026 संशोधित: CET 12वीं स्तर 1-3 दिसंबर, CET स्नातक जनवरी 2027 में
The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB) issued a revised exam calendar on 28 September 2026. Five exams between November 2026 and February 2027 have new dates, because the Board's resources are needed for the local body and Panchayati Raj elections. The biggest change: both levels of the Common Eligibility Test (CET) have moved.
