So I am pissed on my company's polices or whatever for finding out things that I should be ethically or culturally prying in.
These people hired two JS developers (Beginner Level in front-end & JavaScript) &
Company asked me to interview them and I did but I was not satisfied with their interview and told HR about it.

But HR still decided to hired them both and asked me to mentor them.

To this extant I was OK. But I found out that both of them are being paid more than me.

How can someone with more experience and skill be treated like this. and also being asked to mentor juniors who don't event know about closure in JavaScript ?

I am going to ask my boss for a raise as per my skill, performance and responsibilities.

    Just make sure you have a backup plan if your boss says "no", and you're basing it on fact, not anger. You're essentially entering into a negotiation when you start that conversation, and negotiations only work if you have the power to walk away (to another job, in this case.)

    @AlmondSauce Yes I am not going to be angry and I will act in a very proactive way without mentioning that I know about their salaries. I will make sure that I approach to this in a very smooth manner. I am confident about it.

    I have backup plans already. If things don't go in right way, I will have to resign and take another job.

    This sort of shit sucks but happens more than you might think. The best thing to do is look for other options and talk to your boss. I've been in this situation and while I didn't actually apply for any jobs, I sent my boss a few links for positions asking for my responsibilities and experience paying significantly more. I made my point that I could easily start applying for these jobs and I was called in and given a raise the next day.

    PRO TIP: do not bluff.
