ANANTNAG: Relief and Rehabilitation Commissioner (M), Dr Arvind Karwani, today inspected transit accommodations for PM package employees under construction in South Kashmir. Dr Karwani, while interacting with the site engineers, exhorted upon them to ensure timely completion of the buildings so that the quarters can be allotted to the eligible employees at the earliest. He also enjoined upon them to ensure that all quality parameters are maintained while executing these vital works.

He also interacted with the PM package employees, listening to their demands, particularly related to the allotment of quarters. They were assured that all their genuine issues will be redressed. Later, Dr Karwani visited the Swami Vivekananda Nagdandi Ashram, Achabal, Anantnag. He had an exclusive round of the Ashram, enquiring about functioning of the utility from BL Bhat, Chairman, Administrative Committee and other members.

He was apprised of the Yoga activities being held on national level besides spiritual retreats, group meets and symposia organised at the Ashram, as part of the annual calendar. Dr Karwani highly appreciated the social and spiritual work  being done by the Ashram. He specially admired the role of the Nagdandi Ashram in successful conduct of Mata Kheerbhawani Yatra this year.

A Profound Loss: JK Monitor Mourns the Passing of Founding Chairman Dr. Priya Ranjan

We at JK Monitor are profoundly saddened by the sudden demise of our Founding Chairman, Dr. Priya Ranjan.IN LOVING MEMORY Dr Priya Ranjan

A brilliant mind who studied at Netarhat Residential School and graduated in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur before earning his PhD from the University of Maryland, Dr. Ranjan chose to return to India and dedicate his life to teaching, research and social good.

His pioneering work in networked systems, AI, robotics and biomedical applications—especially computer-vision tools for early detection of cancer and heart disease—reflected his deep belief that advanced technology must serve humanity.

For more than 15 years at JK Monitor, he remained a loyal friend, mentor and collaborator, marked by rare humility, intellectual integrity and quiet generosity. His passing leaves a void that cannot be filled. Priya, you will be deeply missed. Your life continues to remind us that knowledge finds its highest purpose in the service of others.
