RAMBAN: As part of the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign, the District Administration Ramban, led by Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Alyas Khan, today organised a series of events to inspire patriotism and public engagement. Departments across the district held Tiranga Rangoli competitions in schools, colleges and public areas. Students used tricolour themes and organic materials to create artistic displays, turning institutions into vibrant hubs of celebration.

Rakhi-making competitions, Tiranga rallies, painting contests and awareness drives on cleanliness, water conservation and hygiene were also organised at Block, Tehsil and Sub-Division levels.

Students performed patriotic songs and skits, promoting unity and national pride. Youth participants urged families and neighbours to hoist the National Flag at their homes. The celebrations will continue across Ramban in the lead-up to Independence Day, strengthening community participation and the spirit of patriotism.

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.
