RAJOURI: Deputy Commissioner Rajouri, Abhishek Sharma today held a press conference to brief media persons about the one-week ‘Prashasan Gaon Ki Ore’ campaign being organised under Good Governance Week which is scheduled to commence on December 19  and continue till December 25 across the district.

The Deputy Commissioner informed that 43 public service and grievances redressal camps would be organised in different blocks and tehsils of the district during the campaign period. The initiative aims to redress pending grievances, strengthen last-mile governance and bring about tangible improvements in service delivery.

The DC said that a wide range of services will be made available at these camps, including facilities from banks, Common Service Centres (CSCs), Aadhaar centres, along with awareness generation and on-the-spot implementation of various government schemes.

He added that a detailed calendar of camps has been issued well in advance to ensure maximum participation of the general public. Officers from concerned departments will be deputed at block and panchayat levels to ensure prompt redressal of public grievances at the grassroots, he said.

The Deputy Commissioner further informed that the Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT) will monitor the campaign. Citizens who are unable to attend the camps can also register their grievances on the JK Samadhan portal. DC Rajouri urged the general public to actively participate in the campaign and avail the services being provided at their doorsteps.

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.
