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

HYDERABAD: RCM celebrated its Silver Jubilee with the grand “Rupantaran Yatra”, which made a remarkable stop at the Exhibition Grounds, Nampally, Hyderabad. The event was graced by Ms. Bushra Patel, President of the India Arab Friendship Foundation (IAFF) and Chief Advisory of the Nations Development Association (NDA), as the Chief Guest. 

The celebration, which drew thousands of participants, featured diverse activities focused on health, fashion, food, and self-reliance, symbolizing RCM’s commitment to empowering individuals and communities. 

The Rupantaran Yatra is a 100-day, 17,000-kilometer nationwide journey commemorating 25 successful years of RCM. Its central theme—Seva, Swasthya, and Sanskaar (Service, Health, and Culture)—reflects the company’s vision of building a self-reliant India through social responsibility, health awareness, and cultural values. 

Speaking at the event, Ms. Bushra Patel lauded RCM’s contribution to promoting entrepreneurship and self-employment opportunities, emphasizing the importance of such initiatives in strengthening India’s economic and social fabric. 

The celebration concluded with immense enthusiasm and a renewed commitment among participants to contribute to the nation’s journey toward Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India).

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.
