Bihar STET 2026 exam postponed to 22 November

The Bihar School Examination Board revised the schedule because 11 November was declared a public holiday for Chitragupta Puja and Bhai Dooj.

The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has revised the schedule for the Secondary Teacher Eligibility Test (STET) 2026, according to reports by Prabhat Khabar and Bhaskar English. The examination, which was originally scheduled for 11 November, will now be conducted on 22 November.

The decision to postpone the exam follows the Bihar government declaring 11 November a public holiday for Chitragupta Puja and Bhai Dooj. The BSEB has also revised the schedule for the School Librarian Eligibility Examination 2026, which will now commence on 23 November instead of 22 November.

Candidates can download their revised admit cards from the official website, stetregistration.cbrt.co.in, starting from 12 November 2026. Applicants must use the new admit cards for the examination instead of the old ones.

The STET, which began on 25 October, is expected to conclude on 22 November with this latest revision. The exam is conducted annually to assess eligibility for teaching positions in secondary and higher secondary levels, with Paper 1 for Classes 9 and 10 and Paper 2 for Classes 11 and 12.
