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

SRINAGAR: The Lieutenant Governor, Shri Manoj Sinha, extended his heartiest greetings to the teachers on the occasion of Teachers’ Day, which is being celebrated on September 05.

In a message, the Lieutenant Governor said, “Heartiest greetings and best wishes to the teachers on the occasion of Teachers’ Day. I offer my humble tributes to the great educationist, philosopher, and former President of India, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Ji, on his Janm-Jayanti. His exemplary life and visionary work continue to be a guiding light for generations to come.

Teachers' Day provides an auspicious occasion to express our profound gratitude for the continuous commitment of educators to human advancement. Teachers are true nation-builders and changemakers. By sparking curiosity and breaking down barriers, they shape young minds and help students grow into creative and compassionate leaders.

I urge teachers to celebrate every student’s unique quality and make their classrooms engaging and interactive spaces. On this day, let us strengthen our resolve to provide quality education for all and work together to build a Developed India by 2047.

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.
