RSSB CET (Graduation Level) 2026, Patwari and LDC 2026 — Eligibility, Pattern, Fees

CET (Graduation Level) 2026 — Advertisement 09/2026 — is only an eligibility test under the Rajasthan Subordinate and Ministerial Services (Common Eligibility Test) Rules, 2022. A CET score does not guarantee a job: each post holds its own main exam, and the number of vacancies is shown in that post's advertisement. Online forms ran from 4 July to 2 August 2026; the exam is set for 1 to 3 December 2026. [1]
