Dear Sri Meena;
I have gone through your post and the vivid report.
First you have to see when these teachers were appointed/recruited whether NET/SET or Ph.D were mandatory or not, If they were not mandatory, then the teachers are absolutely eligible to get the effect of new pay scales.
{You know College Librarians who joined before 01-01-1973 are eligible to UGC pay scales?
Then Masters degree with B.Lib Sc. was made mandatory for appointment of Librarians in Colleges
Then came the B+ Masters' Degree and M.Lib.Sc. was introduced. when the colleges could recruit Librarians straight way.
Then came the NET/SET for appointment of College Librarians and service Commissions were introduced and gradually NET/SET was introduced for recruitment of Assist Librarians in Universities while Dy Librarians in Universities and even Librarians are still exempted from NET/SET.]
HOWEVER, IN CASE THE NET/SET OR PH.D s WERE MANDATORY FOR THESE TEACHERS, STILL,
As I understand, since Education is a State Matter, the State governments concerned, can appoint the teachers without Ph.D or NET/SET by passing an ordinance or a bill in the State Legislature.
BUT
The University grants Commission too has the Full right to (a) withheld their financial contribution to the teachers recruited in contravention to their guidelines. and more importantly,
(b) they can withheld all grants to the state
AND can ask the Universities concerned to DE-RECOGNISE the Colleges where such teachers are appointed.
In short it will be a real pandemonium!!
But for our Country everything is possible with intervention of political lobbying.
There is every possibility that lastly the UGC asks that the teachers have to attain Ph.D within next 5 years. and all will execute a bond and some more trash PHD theses will be added to the existing numbers thats all.

thanks sir
When regulations are ambiguous and the regulators are greedy, then the way to get in is only by greasing the right palms. In fact about 60 to 80 Librarians with NET and SET got in by coordinating well amongst themselves and with people in power in Tamilnadu for the opportunity in the Asia's biggest public library christened as Anna Centenary Library just couple of years back. But as soon as the DMK lost power and the next party took over the power in Tamilnadu, one of the first order the new government made was to close down this library and to convert the space as Hospital!
