GANDERBAL: Police in Ganderbal have observed with serious concern that certain individuals are plying vehicles without valid registration plate numbers, which is a clear violation of Motor Vehicle Rules and poses a significant threat to public safety and security. In view of this, Police have seized many vehicles and initiated strict legal action against the violators and we assure that such violations will be dealt with firmly under the relevant provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act and other applicable laws in future too.

Vehicle owners and Drivers are therefore advised to ensure that their vehicles display proper, valid, and visible Registration Plates at all times. Non-compliance will lead to seizure of their vehicles and legal proceedings against the violators. Moreover, SSP Ganderbal Shri Khalil Ahmad Poswal-JKPS has warned all Stunt Bikers to refrain from performing stunts and has directed the field formations to take stringent action against the violators. We requests general public to cooperate with the J&K Police in maintaining law and order and report any such violations to the nearest Police Station or on the Police helpline No. ERSS Dial 112.

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.
