Simultaneous degrees in india

UGC has approved simultaneous degree from two different university depending upon the recommendation made by expert committe(https://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/0367166_morethanonedegree.pdf).The final approval came in the 494th meeting(minutes to meeting, clause 2.03 in https://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/0355877_UGC_Minutes_494th-Meeting_310713_final_1-ugc-website.pdf) held in 31st July 2013 but the organisation has not yet published any circular or regulations till date.I am a PhD scholar enrolled in PhD(Regular) on March 2013. After the final  approval of UGC came in,I joined a M.Tech Course(3 year Part Time Evening Course) in August 2013  in a different University, as that will help me in my PhD and also in professional career. According to the then university norms I had to submit my migration certificate for university registration. I have my PhD registration scheduled in January 2015 and I need a migration certificate for that and the university has not yet received any circular regarding simultaneous degree from UGC.

Q1. Does UGC's approval gives me legal right to pursue simultaneous degrees, one in regular and another in part time mode?

Q2. What can be done under such circumstances?

Q3. Can I seek permission from the magistrate for issue of duplicate migration certificate on that ground.

Q4. Whom can I approach for a solution regarding this issue?
