BUDGAM, AWANTIPORA: Police organized awareness camps for students as part of the “Seva Parv” initiative in Budgam and Awantipora. A large number of students from different schools participated in these programmes. In Budgam, awareness camp was organised at Police Station Charar-e-Sharief and similarly in Awantipora, awareness/grievance redressal camp was organised in sub-divisions of Pampore and Awantipora.

The students were briefed about the role and functioning of a police station, day-to-day responsibilities of police personnel and the importance of police-public cooperation in maintaining peace and order. Officers also interacted with the students and addressed their queries to enhance their understanding of policing, rights and civic duties.

The initiative, held under the nationwide “Seva Parv” programme, aims to strengthen police-public relations and spread awareness among youth about various services and responsibilities of the police. The initiative was widely appreciated by the public, who lauded the efforts of Police for their commitment to responsive and community-oriented policing.

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.
