UDHAMPUR: As part of the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign (Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav), the District Administration Udhampur, under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner Saloni Rai, hosted a series of activities with the involvement of school students. The events were held at Government Higher Secondary School Khaned, GHSS Bupp and GHSS Lander.

The aim of these events was to instill a deep sense of patriotism among students and the general public and to generate awareness regarding the significance and protocol of the National Flag. A  Tiranga rally held at GHSS Khaned witnessed enthusiastic participation of students and staff who marched with the National Flag, raising slogans of unity and patriotism.

Quiz Competitions were conducted focusing on the history, symbolism and flag code related to the Indian National Flag. These competitions not only tested the knowledge of the students but also served as an educational platform to spread awareness about the Flag Code of India, including the material, dimensions and usage protocol of the Tricolour.

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.

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.
