If non-registered lawyers use this logo whether it is encroachment of proprietary of Bar Council of India.

No one, including the Advocates enrolled with the Bar Councils, have any right to use the logo of Bar Council of India. If they do, then it will be clear infringement of the trademark of BCI.
However, there is no bar for individual lawyers/Law Firms to apply for and obtain registration of their logo as a trade mark.
The trade mark is currently classified into Goods and Services. The goods and services are further assigned different classifictions.
Class 42 inter alia relates to legal services.
Therefore, if an Advocate desires, he can apply for grant of trademark for his logo, under Class 42.
