Dear Anand, You have absolutely nailed on the head, about what we preach and practice. We need to rectify all such anomalies by representing through AIFUCTO and various other (such) organizations. Otherwise, in the next pay revision (if any) we will definitely be placed in the non-teaching cadre by manipulating/altering entry level qualifications as it happened in the case of NITs and the like. -- Thanking You, Dr.M.Kannan,M.L.I.Sc.,PhD., & UGC-NET Librarian, V.O.Chidambaram College, Palaymkottai Road, Tuticorin - 628 008.
