KUPWARA: The Deputy Commissioner (DC) Kupwara, Ayushi Sudan today inaugurated the much-awaited Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (RRR) Centre at the Municipal Council Office Kupwara. The inauguration marks a significant step towards promoting environmental sustainability and waste management in the district.

DDC Member Sogam, Executive Officer MC Kupwara, President Traders Federation Kupwara, President Transport Association Kupwara and large number of employees of Municipality were present on the occasion.

RRR Centre is aimed to promote the act of kindness where people will deposit their used clothes, discarded household items and other charitable things which will help other people especially poor and destitute. The aim is to reduce the wastage of resources by the people by recycling the used things for the people in need.

Speaking at the occasion, DC appreciated the initiative of the Municipal Committee and said that it is a noble and eco-friendly concept aimed to help the poor people by donating used items which will be recycled. 

She appealed the people to make the initiative vibrant by donating their surplus things including used clothes, household items and other discarded stuff to the RRR Centre which will be useful for the people in need.

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.
