Education News: The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) has released the Exam City Intimation Slip for the Senior Teacher (Grade II) Recruitment Examination 2026. Candidates can now check their allotted exam city online and plan their travel well before the examination.
The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) has activated the Exam City Intimation Slip for candidates appearing in the Senior Teacher (Grade II) Recruitment Examination 2026. Applicants who have successfully registered for the recruitment process can now log in to the official recruitment portal or the Rajasthan SSO Portal to check the city where their examination centre has been allotted.
The exam city slip is released in advance to help candidates make travel and accommodation arrangements before the examination. However, candidates should note that this document is only for informing them about the allotted exam city and cannot be used as an admit card for entry into the examination hall.
Recruitment Drive to Fill 9,651 Vacancies
The recruitment campaign aims to fill 9,651 Senior Teacher (Grade II) vacancies in the Rajasthan Secondary Education Department.
Key highlights include:
- Total vacancies: 9,651
- The recruitment was initially announced for 6,500 posts.
- The vacancy count was later revised upward by the commission.
The recruitment is one of the state's largest teacher hiring drives and is expected to attract a significant number of candidates.

Candidates are advised to carefully verify their subject-wise examination date and shift timing once their admit cards are released.
