Irregularities in the PhD guide-ship at DLISc, Tripura University

In continuation to my earlier post, I want to raise a issue here.

As per UGC guidelines for PhD guide-ship following rules should have to be followed with strict emphasis i.e 

Only a full time regular teacher of the concerned University/Institution Deemed to be a University/College can act as a supervisor. The external supervisors are not allowed. However, Co-Supervisor can be allowed in inter-disciplinary areas from other departments of the same institute or from other related institutions with the approval of the Research Advisory Committee.
Page number 9.

But it is came to know that many universities by illegal means allowing a non-faculty to be act as a PhD guide which is violation of UGC's guidelines. if any rule is there for non-faculty Ph.D. guideship then that must be followed for each and every university for eligible non-faculty person.

Tripra University few month back advertised for two Ph.D. seats under Head, DLISc but after merit list got published it is seen that three of the candidates are in the waiting list and two got selected but few days later all the three waitlisted candidates got the admission under the guideship of Librarian, Tripura University. Tripura University is a Central University but it has violated UGCs guidelines as Librarian is not a faculty member nor he has any teaching experience.

I am raising this issue here so that Library organisation may seen and act accordingly. The matter also raised in UGC through written complain.
