JAMMU: Senior BJP leaders Ravinder Raina and Choudhary Zulfkar Ali visited Poonch and expressed their heartfelt condolences to MLA Ejaz Jan on the sad demise of his mother. Mr. Raina and Zulfkar Choudhary expressed deep solidarity with the bereaved family members.

We mourn the passing of Respected Aunti Atiqa Jan, a woman whose grace and quiet courage shaped not only her family but everyone blessed to cross her path. Her life was a tapestry of dignity, wisdom, and unwavering devotion qualities that made her a central pillar in both her home and her community.

Known as the wife of former MLA Ghulam Mohd Jan and the mother of MLA Haveli Ajaz Ahmad Jan and Dr. Riyaz Jan BMO Mandi her true identity was far greater than her titles. She was the heartbeat of her household a gentle mentor, a silent supporter, and the steady presence that held generations together.

Whether in the simplicity of her home or in her role as a District Development Council member, she carried herself with poise and purpose. She served people with a sincerity that left an imprint on every soul she touched. Her leadership was never loud; it was felt through kindness, empathy, and the way she made others feel seen and valued.

Her legacy is one of compassion, resilience, faith, and an unspoken strength that uplifted everyone around her. Her absence leaves a void that words cannot fill, but her teachings and her love will continue to guide her family and community for years to come.

May Allah grant her the highest place in Jannat-ul-Firdous, illuminate her path with mercy, and bless her family with patience and unity as they carry forward the values she embodied.

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