A nominal fee per objection may apply, and objections must be supported with valid references.
Paper 2 Cancellation at Some Centres
A separate development related to CTET 2026 was the cancellation of Paper II at two examination centres in Vaishali (Bihar) due to irregularities during the exam. CBSE has promised either a re-examination or further instructions for affected candidates.
