SSC’s Combined Hindi Translators Examination, 2026 Paper‑I is being held today, September 8. Candidates should promptly confirm their exam city, shift and reporting window, then download their regional admit card.

Entry is governed by the admit card’s reporting slot and entry closing time. After gate closure, no entry is permitted. Carry one original photo ID with the same date of birth as the admit card, or bring an accepted proof for mismatch, else the centre may refuse entry.
