Congratulations to all our library associations for uplifting our library professionals.
All library associations write a recommendation letter to UGC
All the library associations insist on modifying the small changes in the UGC 2018 Regulation
Already mentioned in point number 4.0 is library science.
Remove these designations: assistant librarians, deputy librarians, and librarians, and also remove related designations where they are reflected, like Career Advancement Scheme (CAS) for librarians.
Because we should make a small change in point no. 4.7, see below.
