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.

BANDIPORA: District Task Force (DTF) Bandipora on Thursday conducted an inspection drive at Sumbal under the ongoing Pan-India Rescue and Rehabilitation Campaign 3.0 being implemented under Mission Vatsalya.

The drive was carried out in collaboration with the Labour Department and District Legal Services Authority (DLSA) Bandipora, with the aim of identifying and preventing instances of child labour, trafficking and other forms of child exploitation.

During the inspection, the team visited various commercial establishments and workplaces to assess adherence to child protection laws and labour regulations. The officials also interacted with shopkeepers, workers and members of the public, sensitizing them about the legal provisions related to child labour and the importance of protecting child rights.

Officials from the Labour Department highlighted the provisions of child labour laws and penalties for violations, while the DLSA informed stakeholders about the availability of free legal aid and support services for vulnerable children and their families.

The District Task Force reiterated its commitment towards ensuring a safe and secure environment for children in the district and emphasized that strict action will be taken against violators as per law. Authorities further informed that such inspection drives will continue across the district to strengthen child protection mechanisms and ensure rehabilitation and reintegration of rescued children.

The district administration urged the public to cooperate with authorities and report any cases of child labour or exploitation for timely action and protection of children.

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.
