SRINAGAR: In preparation for the 4th National LokAdalat scheduled for December 14, 2024, the District Judiciary Srinagar and District Legal Services Authority (DLSA) Srinagar today inaugurated special Lok Adalat benches at the District Court Complex, Srinagar.

The event, held under the esteemed guidance of Jaffer Hussain Beg, Chairman of the DLSA and Principal District & Sessions Judge Srinagar, and the supervision of Nusrat Ali Hakak, Sub-Judge/Secretary of DLSA Srinagar, marks a significant step towards providing accessible and efficient dispute resolution. The benches were inaugurated by Jaffer Hussain Beg, Chairman DLSA Srinagar in presence of all the Ld. judicial officers of the District Court Srinagar.

In this regard five (05) benches have been constituted to specifically address compoundable traffic challans, including on-spot challans and notices for all types of vehicles, commercial vehicles included. These benches will operate until December 14, 2024, aiming to significantly reduce the backlog of pending cases.

To further enhance public participation and awareness, a Help Desk for technical and procedural Support has been established at the public entrance near Petition Writers Block of the District Court Complex Srinagar, staffed by court officials and para-legal volunteers.

The officials & PLVs, which shall be operative till 14th December 2024 at the Help Desk, shall import information and guidance to the litigants. Its primary objective is to encourage the public to participate in resolving disputes amicably, thereby promoting a culture of settlement and legal literacy.

The 4th National Lok Adalat is an integral effort to provide an alternative dispute resolution platform for resolving cases amicably and expeditiously. Special Lok Adalats and pre-Lok Adalats have been organized as part of this initiative to extend legal services to the public effectively, ensuring access to justice for all sections of society.

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 profoundly 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, he never treated me as an employee, but as a younger brother, offering warmth, trust, respect and invaluable guidance. I will always be grateful for his faith in me, his encouragement and the lessons he shared.

Dr. Ranjan was a rare and noble soul—humble, compassionate, intellectually brilliant and always willing to help others. A visionary thinker, he believed in using knowledge and abilities to make a meaningful difference. His influence lives on through the people he guided, the work he inspired and the countless lives he touched.

For me, he will always be the elder brother who believed in me and guided me with affection. I will cherish his kindness and lessons forever. May his soul rest in eternal peace. He will be deeply missed and never forgotten.

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.
