JAMMU: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Jammu & Kashmir, led by its senior leaders, paid warm and heartfelt tributes to Bharat Ratna Chandikadas Amritrao Deshmukh, affectionately known as “Nanaji,” on his death anniversary at the party headquarters in Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. The programme was marked by floral tributes and remembrance of Nanaji’s exemplary life dedicated to nation building, and social upliftment.

J&K BJP Vice-President Rekha Mahajan, General Secretaries Sanjita Dogra, Baldev Singh Billawaria and Gopal Mahajan, along with Parduman Singh, Dr. Hari Dutt, Naveen Sharma, Anil Massoom, Rajesh Gupta, Sanjay Sharma, Pardeep Sharma, Pankaj Bral, Anita Gupta, Anisha and other senior leaders and party activists, participated in the tribute ceremony and recalled Nanaji’s immense contribution to the nation.

Rekha Mahajan said that Nanaji was posthumously conferred the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award, by the Government of India in recognition of his unparalleled service to society. She stated that even during his active political career, he remained deeply connected to the grassroots and consistently worked to strengthen nationalist ideology and value-based politics rooted in Bharat’s cultural ethos.

Sanjita Dogra said that after voluntarily renouncing active politics, Nanaji devoted decades of his life to rural development and social transformation. She highlighted that his initiatives in village empowerment and self-sustained community development created a model for inclusive growth. His life, she added, continues to inspire generations committed to nation-building.

Baldev Singh Billawaria said that Nanaji’s contribution in the fields of education, healthcare, and rural self-reliance was transformative and visionary. He emphasized that Nanaji believed in empowering villages as the foundation of a strong nation.

Gopal Mahajan said that Nanaji’s exceptional organizational skills, disciplined lifestyle, and unwavering commitment to social service remain a guiding light for party workers, motivating them to work selflessly for society and the nation.

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.
