JAMMU: National Conference (NC) is the champion in establishing very strong robust foundation of terrorism and separatism in J&K and till today the whole J&K is paying a very heavy and unbearable price for this creation by NC. This was stated by Arun Gupta, J&K BJP Spokesperson. Accompanied by Dr. Pardeep Mahotra, BJP Media Incharge, he was addressing a Press Conference at party headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu.

Generation after generation in J&K have been deprived of joining mainstream of country and today when whole India and it’s all states are progressing leaps and bound, J&K has started the path of progress with the active involvement of Govt. of India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Before 1947, when J&K was a princely state, NC then also had agenda of promoting separatism and after 1947, when J&K was part of united India post-Independence, NC continued its agenda for all the years. The separatism and terrorism were brewing up which resulted into full-fledged terrorism in 1989, with the active support of then NC government in power, which saw huge migration from Kashmir, which give a clear indication that it was a designed game plan of NC. The Police administration, law and order were all vested with J&K Government and inspite of all resources available NC did not stop this migration from Kashmir.

The foundation of NC is based on the concept and philosophy of separatism and the seeds planted have turned into big trees, in all these years. There trees are well nourished and fed and the results are evident from the situation J&K is passing through. Govt. of India and local administration have been successful in ensuring that common man in J&K is comfortable, no hartals, no calendar, no dictation, no appeasement to separatism.

NC has to reply to the citizens of J&K as to why inspite of world-famous tourist destination, both leisure and religious pilgrimage, has been so backward even after many years of Independence. NC could never think and imagine beyond their family and its growth, and to ensure they continue to be in power all forces and powers were appeased, resulting into J&K condition, where we are today.

Deep rooted seeds of separatism and their appeasement have destroyed the J&K and its democratic institutions. NC is Soley responsible for this and today they are asking Question to regarding militancy, which only NC has to answer. NC will never be forgiven for the damages they have done to J&K and its citizens. Generations will never forgive NC for all the contribution they have done before 1947and after 1947, resulting into 40 long years of deprivation to J&K and its citizens.

J&K has now started successfully on the path of very fast progress and irresponsible statement by NC leaders is not something citizens of J&K will ever want. This militancy supported statements only add to the agenda of NC which harm the progress, growth and peace.

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