POONCH: The District Administration Poonch today organizes a series of  camps across all 11 blocks to provide different services and  redress public grievances of people under the campaign 'Prashasan Gaon Ki Ore.'

The central event took place at the DC Office and Bus Stand Poonch, where Deputy Commissioner Vikas Kundal alongside Additional Deputy Commissioner Tahir Mustafa Malik, CPO, Tehsildar Haveli, and other officials, inspected the services stalls set up by different departments.

The stalls offered a wide range of public services, including Aadhar enrollment, Ayushman Card registration, ABHA ID registration, online revenue services, e-services from the Road Transport Department, Labour and Employment Services, services from Social welfare Department, Mission Youth initiatives, agriculture services, e-KYC for ration cards, birth and death registrations, and more.

Similar service delivery stalls were established at both district and block-level camps, managed by the concerned officers, including Block Development Officers, Tehsildars, and Sub-Divisional Magistrates. This initiative aims to enhance accessibility to government services and foster a responsive governance framework for the residents of Poonch.

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.
