Medical standards for RRB NTPC vary by post category and are classified under medical categories (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2) as per Indian Railways Medical Manual.

- Safety-category posts (e.g., Station Master, Traffic Assistant, Goods Guard): Require Medical Category A1/A2 (strict vision, hearing, and physical fitness standards)
- Non-safety posts (e.g., Junior Clerk, Accounts Assistant): Usually require Medical Category B1/B2 or C1

Key requirements:
- Distant vision: 6/9, 6/9 (without glasses) for A1; 6/9, 6/12 (with or without glasses) for B1
- No color blindness for operational posts
- Candidates must pass the medical examination conducted by Railway Medical Authorities

Medical disqualification leads to ineligibility even after clearing all exam stages.
