Bold claim ahead: The RRB Nursing Superintendent City Intimation Slip 2026 is out, and it’s your key to planning the many moving parts before the big CBT date. If you’re aiming to sit for the CEN 03/2025 exam, this slip tells you where you’ll take the test and roughly when, but it’s not your admit card. Here’s a clear, beginner-friendly guide to what’s new, what to do next, and how to stay on top of the process.
But here’s where it gets controversial: some candidates assume the city slip doubles as admission proof. It does not. The official e-admit card arrives later, typically about four days before the exam, and only that card will be accepted at the centre. Treat the city slip as your travel and logistics planner, not your entry ticket.
