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

I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at In Loving Memory · Dr. Priya Ranjan

When he appointed me Editor-in-Chief of JK Monitor (www.jkmonitor.org), he never made me feel like an employee. He treated me as a younger brother—with warmth, trust and respect. His guidance was generous, his encouragement sincere, and his door was always open whenever I needed help or advice. I will remain deeply grateful for the confidence he placed in me and for all that he taught me.

Dr. Ranjan was a rare and noble human being: kind-hearted, humble and always ready to help. He was also a visionary intellectual whose ideas reached beyond the immediate moment. He brought together deep knowledge, curiosity and a belief in using one’s abilities to make a meaningful difference.

The tributes from his students and colleagues speak of the same qualities I was fortunate to experience myself: a brilliant mind joined with a compassionate heart, and a mentor who made people feel valued. His influence lives on in the people he guided, the work he inspired and the many lives he touched.

For me, he will always be more than a respected chairman or a remarkable intellectual. He will be the elder brother who welcomed me, believed in me and guided me with affection. I will carry his lessons and his kindness with me always. May his soul rest in eternal peace. He will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered and never forgotten.

NOIDA: PhysicsWallah (PW), an education company, has announced results in the JEE Main Session 1 2025 Exam, with four state toppers, one of whom secured a 100 percentile from Gujarat, along with more than 612 students scoring above the 99.5 percentile, over 1359 students scoring above the 99 percentile, and 3548+ students scoring above the 98 percentile, with counting still underway. With its far-reaching impact, PW is nurturing talent in the farthest corners of the nation, with state toppers emerging from diverse regions, stretching from the westernmost state of Gujarat to the easternmost state of Arunachal Pradesh.

The PW Achievers are four state toppers who have excelled in their exams with remarkable scores. Shiven Vikas Toshniwal from Gujarat secured a perfect 100 percentile, Ishant Verma from Mizoram achieved 99.57 percentile, Pranay Kumar Roy from Arunachal Pradesh scored 99.38 percentile, and Kamran Bilal Bhat from Jammu & Kashmir attained 99.89 percentile, closely matching his performance in PW’s mock test. These students studied from PW's online batches- Arjuna JEE and Lakshya JEE and PW’s offline centers- Vidyapeeth & Pathshala. This reflects PhysicWallah's integrated approach to education, seamlessly combining digital and physical platforms to offer a holistic and effective learning experience.

Alakh Pandey, Teacher, Founder & CEO, said, "Congratulations to all students who performed well- your hard work has yielded results. I am proud of each one of you, including the ones who didn’t achieve the expected results. Do not be discouraged. The next two months are crucial for your Session 2 exams. Focus on consistent revision and practicing the Session 1 paper, as the difficulty level will be similar. Stay committed, keep improving, and trust the process. We are here to support you every step of the way.”

As aspirants gear up for JEE Main Session 2 scheduled to be held in April 2025, PW aims to provide resources, guidance and support to help them maximize their potential. To aid in their preparation, PW has an ongoing Manzil 2.0, a free and comprehensive revision series available on YouTube, enabling students to revise key concepts in a short span.

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.
