BARAMULLA: As part of the ongoing digitisation of revenue records, the Tehsil Administration Sopore has commenced the public reading of Digitised Jamabandies (Revenue Records), beginning with village Lalad.

The exercise is being conducted under the supervision of Tehsildar Sopore, Sheikh Tariq Ahmad, with the objective of ensuring transparency, accuracy, and active public participation in the revenue record management system. During these camps, digitised land records are read out in the presence of landowners and local residents, allowing them to verify entries and raise objections, if any, on the spot.

This process is a vital component of the district’s broader initiative to digitise all revenue records and provide reliable, transparent, and citizen-friendly land record services. The Tehsil Administration has urged landowners and residents, particularly farmers and other stakeholders, to actively participate in these camps and attend the readings to safeguard their land-related interests.

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.
