"Legacy of Baba Sahib faded into oblivion for decades but under Modi govt, it is in the driving seat": Andrabi

SRINAGAR: Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan, under the aegis of MY Bharat organised “Jai Bhim Padyatra” from Hokersar Wetland, Zainakote to Narbal Crossing to commemorate the birth anniversary of Dr B.R.Ambedkar. The Padyatra was flagged off & led by Dr Syed Darakhshan Andrabi, Chairperson of JK Waqf Board. The padyatra aimed at propagating the teachings of Dr. Ambedkar witnessed the participation of more than 600 youth belonging to different districts. In her presidential address, Dr Syed Darakhshan Andrabi lauded the efforts of MY Bharat J&K for organising this graceful event and spreading the teachings & messages of Dr. Ambedkar among the youth.

"The contribution of Bhim Rai Ambedkar is immense in building a powerful, progressive, visionary & democratically strong nation. We have paid heavy prices forignoring and humiliating the intellectual & political legacy of Baba Sahib for decades in Congress rule but now PM Modiis taking numerous initiatives to strengthen constitutional values among the citizens and focused on the role of youth to achieve Viksit Bharat by 2047 adhering to the Constitution of Bharat", said Andrabi. She said that Prime Minister's 'Sabka saath, Sabka vikas' is in tune with the doctrines of Ambedkar Ji.

Youth leaders Bilal Ah Parray and Khalid Baqal were also present. At the outset, District Youth Officer Khushal Gupta presented welcome address Naseer Ahmed (Range Officer, Hokersar), Sh. Rameez Ahmed (SHO Shalteng), Sh. Rahi Reyaz Ahmed (Ahsan Foundation), APA NYK Srinagar Sh. Gulzar Ahmed Ganaie, Civil Society Members Sh. Abdul Khaliq Ahanger, Sh. Bashir Irfan, Sh. Mohd Yousuf, Sh.

In loving memory of Dr. Priya Ranjan: A mentor who treated me like family

I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness profoundly shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at In Loving Memory · Dr. Priya Ranjan

When he appointed me Editor-in-Chief of JK Monitor, he never treated me as an employee, but as a younger brother, offering warmth, trust, respect and invaluable guidance. I will always be grateful for his faith in me, his encouragement and the lessons he shared.

Dr. Ranjan was a rare and noble soul—humble, compassionate, intellectually brilliant and always willing to help others. A visionary thinker, he believed in using knowledge and abilities to make a meaningful difference. His influence lives on through the people he guided, the work he inspired and the countless lives he touched.

For me, he will always be the elder brother who believed in me and guided me with affection. I will cherish his kindness and lessons forever. May his soul rest in eternal peace. He will be deeply missed and never forgotten.

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.
