BJP pays devotional tributes to Sant Kabir

JAMMU: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Jammu & Kashmir, today observed the 627th Parkash Utsav of Shiromani Sant Kabir Ji Maharaj with great reverence and enthusiasm at the party headquarters in Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. The event was marked by devotional tributes, enlightening speeches, and a reaffirmation of commitment to the timeless values propagated by Sant Kabir Ji.

The event was presided over by J&K BJP President Sat Sharma, who was joined by prominent party leaders including General Secretary and MLA Dr. Devinder Manyal, MLAs Prof. Gharu Ram Bhagat, Rajeev Bhagat, and Surinder Bhagat. BJP Vice-President Faqir Chand Bhagat and SC Morcha Prabhari Jagdish Bhagat also addressed the gathering.

In his address, Sat Sharma highlighted the enduring relevance of Sant Kabir Ji’s teachings in today’s era of materialism and social divisions. He emphasized that Kabir Ji’s message of universal brotherhood, truth, and equality is more crucial than ever and must guide societal and political conduct alike. "Sant Kabir Ji transcended caste, religion, and dogma to spread the message of love, humility, and devotion to God," he said.

Dr. Devinder Manyal stressed upon Kabir Ji’s role as a reformer who challenged social evils like casteism and hypocrisy. He called upon the youth to draw inspiration from Kabir Ji’s fearless voice and adopt a life of simplicity, integrity, and compassion. He noted that BJP has always stood by the values of social harmony and upliftment of the marginalized, which echo Kabir Ji’s mission.

Other speakers including Prof. Gharu Ram Bhagat, Rajeev Bhagat, Surinder Bhagat, Faqir Chand Bhagat and Balbir Ram Rattan also spoke about the influence of Sant Kabir Ji’s teachings on Indian society and culture. They highlighted the need to institutionalize Kabir Ji’s philosophy through education and public awareness. The programme witnessed the participation of BJP workers, social activists, scholars, and community members who paid floral tributes to the saint-poet and participated in devotional recitations and discussions.

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.
