  • NC will intensify its struggle for restoration of Statehood

JAMMU: Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (NC), has expressed immense confidence in the victory of the NC-Congress alliance in the ongoing Assembly elections, predicting a win with substantial margins on October 8.

In a statement issued here today, the senior NC leader commended the people of Jammu and Kashmir for their massive participation in the three phases of the Assembly polls, emphasizing their enthusiasm and commitment to strengthening democracy in the region.

Rattan Lal Gupta also lauded the tireless efforts of the party cadre, stating that their pivotal role in the electoral process is instrumental to the anticipated success. "The massive voter turnout is a clear reflection of the people's desire for change, and their faith in the NC-Congress alliance as a vehicle for that change," he remarked.

The senior NC leader further highlighted the importance of democracy, underscoring that it thrives when citizens actively participate in the electoral process. "Democracy is the backbone of our nation. It is the people’s voice and their participation that gives legitimacy to our governance. The significant voter turnout is a testament to the enduring spirit of democracy in Jammu and Kashmir."

Rattan Lal Gupta asserted that the people of Jammu and Kashmir are fed up with the current state of affairs under the present regime, which has failed to address their issues and aspirations. "The electorate is seeking a change in leadership, and the NC-Congress alliance stands as the only viable alternative to restore stability, development, and peace in the region."

Rattan Lal Gupta expressed his firm belief that the polling results will be overwhelmingly in favor of the NC-Congress alliance. "The people have shown their trust in us, and we are confident that we will form the next government in Jammu and Kashmir on October 8, bringing a brighter future for all its residents."

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.
