SAMBA: As part of the ongoing Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas 2025 celebration, a series of events were organised across District Samba to honour the legacy of Bhagwan Birsa Munda and to highlight the rich heritage of India’s tribal communities. Government Degree College Purmandal organised a Quiz and Painting Competition on the theme “Tribal Life and History”, encouraging students to explore the traditions, art, and culture of tribal societies through knowledge and creativity.

Similarly, GDC Ghagwal hosted an extension lecture on “Birsa Munda’s Legacy: Inspiring the Youth towards Social Justice and Equality”, motivating students to imbibe the values of courage, justice and reform championed by the tribal icon. The Youth Services and Sports Department organised a sports event at Government High School Tarore- Zone Ghagwal, aimed at promoting fitness, team spirit and enthusiasm among students.

Likewise, Drawing Competitions were held at Anganwadi Centres across the district to nurture creativity and spread awareness among children about tribal culture and pride. In addition, Special Anemia and NCD Screening Camps were organised for the tribal population at AWC Battal and PHC Nud under NTPHC Goran, Zone Sumb. The camps provided health check-ups, awareness sessions on anaemia and family planning, and free distribution of medicines.

The Department of AYUSH, Samba also held Yoga and Health Check-up Camps at Anganwadi Centres of Panchayat Bari, promoting holistic wellness among local women and children. These collective initiatives across educational institutions, health centres, and community spaces reflected the district’s deep respect for tribal heritage while promoting education, health and empowerment at every level.

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.
