Pallavi,

sys_scope is extended from sys_metadata table which is grandfather of grandfathers(basically its one of the root tables.) 

There is an OOB ACL which makes this field read only. 

ACL Name is : sys_metadata.sys_scope

It is configured in such a way that nobody can write to the field which makes it read only.

It has nobody role, which means nobody other than service-now personnel can write to it.

Please mark the answer as Correct/Helpful if applicable so that it may help others in future.
