ANANTNAG: As part of the ongoing Dharti Aaba Janbhagidari Abhiyan, a 15-day outreach campaign aimed at empowering tribal communities, district administration Anantnag today organized mega awareness and benefit saturation camps across various panchayats of the district. The camps witnessed enthusiastic participation from the local tribal population. 

Resource persons from multiple government departments engaged with the attendees, providing comprehensive information on a wide range of welfare schemes and services. During the camps, officials spread awareness about social security, livelihood, and skill development programmes, and also addressed public grievances raised by the community members. A number of issues were redressed on the spot, reflecting the administration’s commitment to responsive governance.

As part of the Dharti Aaba Janbhagidari Abhiyan, district administration is organizing similar camps across all identified locations in the district. These outreach programmes will continue until June 30, 2025, with the goal of ensuring that no tribal household remains deprived of the benefits of government schemes. DAJGU Abhiyan is being closely monitored by the District Development Commissioner, Anantnag, through regular reviews and field visits, ensuring transparency, effective implementation, and saturation of services.

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.
