Discrepancy occurred in VTU Report
Respected Professionals, As we know Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) is the Technical University of Karnataka established under the AICTE. In VTU the status of Librarians & Assitant Librarians are considered as group 'C' and Librarians are listed with FDC's, SDS's, Stenographers, Typists, Drivers etc., whereas status of Physical Directors are considered as Group B (Annexure VIII of VTU's Annual Report). But, most of the Engineering colleges (under VTU) has given teaching staff (equal to other HOD's of the departments) states to librarians with AICTE pay scales and designations such as Librarian, Senior Librarian, Selection Grade Librarian, Chief Librarian. With reference to the above, it has been noticed by one of my professional friend in lis-forum sometime back; But unfortunately so far no association and veteran professionals have not aired their views regard this. Request all the professionals who have been member of the associations write mail to respective associations and demand them to intervene in this issue. And make them to work for the welfare of the profession and professionals instead engage in routine activities, in the larger interest of profession. Some associations keen on increasing membership but has not responded to this matter and remained as deaf. Some experts talking about professional welfare in different forums have got a real opportunity now to prove their commitment; so I request all of them to join their hands in eradicating what injustice occurred and time has come to demonstrate our oneness in fighting against all the obstacles encounter in the path of professional up-liftment Raghavendra R raghupawar@gmail.com +91 9448204498 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
