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

JAMMU: The CID Counter-Intelligence Jammu has achieved a major operational success by arresting one Hilal Ahmed Bhat, S/o Mohd Assad Ullah Bhat, R/o Poshpora, Kupwara, at Present Bhagani Talab Mohalla, Raipur Domana, Jammu and executed the absconder warrant issued under section 512 CrPC against the accused Hilal Ahmed Bhat and his father, namely Mohd Assad Ullah Bhat, S/o Ghulam Mohd Bhat, R/o Poshpora, Kupwara, by the Hon’ble Court of Principal Session Judge, Jammu.

These accused persons were wanted in a Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) case, FIR No. 05/2007 U/s 489A, 489B & 489C RPC of Police Station CID (CI), Jammu and have been absconding for a prolonged period of 10 years. They have deliberately evaded the process of law during the trial before the Hon’ble Court of Principal Session Judge, Jammu.

Based on specific, actionable intelligence, the Fugitive Tracking Team of CID (CI) Jammu mounted a swift and well-coordinated operation, leading to his arrest in Jammu. Following his arrest, the accused was produced before the Hon’ble Court and has been remanded to judicial custody.

This operation once again reaffirms the zero-tolerance approach of CID J&K towards FICN operatives and their ecosystem. The agency remains firmly committed to tracking fugitives, breaking FICN/terror support structures, and ensuring that no accused involved in FICN/terror-related offences escapes the reach of law.

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.
