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

JAMMU: Munish Sharma, Incharge ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign of J&K BJP, today, kickstarted the campaign by distributing the ‘Tiranga’ to the party leaders at BJP headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. BJP Secretary Arvind Gupta, Office Secretary Tilak Raj Gupta, Library Incharge Prof Kulbhushan Mohtra, senior leaders Gajey Singh Rana, Adv. Bhanu Jasrotia, and others were present on the occasion.

Munish Sharma, while speaking on the occasion, said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in the 112th edition of his Mann Ki Baat programme in July, had called for the celebration of the Har Ghar Tiranga programme as a national festival. He said that while every citizen of India loves ‘Tiranga’ from the core of the heart and wants to participate in the national festival, the BJP is also doing its bit of duty to facilitate every citizen of Jammu & Kashmir to procure the ‘Tiranga’.

He said that the party will facilitate the procurement of the national flag at the BJP headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, and also at various places across the region. He said that the party leaders are also given instructions to participate in all the events related to ‘Tiranga’ on a mass level while ensuring the participation of people from all walks of life in the events near their places and importantly in the hoisting of Tiranga at the rooftops of their residences and the commercial establishments. In the series, he shared today, the party has opened up its mini store at the party headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu.

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.
