JAMMU: The Jammu and Kashmir Entrepreneurship Development Institute (JKEDI) on Wednesday celebrated 76th Constitution Day (Samvidhan Divas) at its Sempora campus in Kashmir and Bari Brahmana campus in Jammu to commemorate adoption of the Constitution of India. This year’s celebrations were held under the theme “Hamara Samvidhan Hamara Swabhiman” (Our Constitution – Our Pride).

The Secretary highlighted the greatness of the Constitution of India and its role in ensuring equal opportunities for all citizens.

As part of the observance, a pledge ceremony was conducted to reaffirm commitment to uphold the Constitution in its true spirit. The Preamble was read aloud and all employees pledged to abide by the ideals and fulfill the fundamental duties enshrined in it. The Constitution Day was also observed in JKEDI’s district offices, where District Nodal Officers and faculty members spoke on various aspects of the Constitution. They recalled the invaluable contribution of Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar in shaping the Constitution and underscored the importance of understanding and celebrating the nation’s achievements and history.

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.
