REASI: District Legal Services Authority Reasi, under the visionary leadership of its Chairman (also Pr. District and Sessions Judge) Khalil Choudhary and the guidance of Secretary Pooja Gupta, organised a series of legal awareness programmes in different parts of the District.  An IEC campaign themed “Say No to Drugs” was organized at Village Angralla-Mahore by the local Para Legal Volunteers (PLVs).

The participants were sensitized to the physical, mental, social, and economic consequences of substance abuse.   The PLVs also highlighted the role of the Legal Services Institutions in providing legal aid and support to eligible persons and informed the participants about various welfare schemes and legal services available through DLSA and TLSC.

An awareness programme on the Functions of Legal Aid Clinic was organized at Panchayat Akhli by the Para Legal Volunteers (PLVs) of TLSC Katra.  The participants were informed about the availability of free legal aid for women, children, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, victims of trafficking, members of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, and other marginalized sections of society. 

Meanwhile, Para Legal Volunteers (PLVs) of DLSA hosted an awareness programme on Samadhan Samaroh- an initiative of the Supreme Court of India to facilitate the settlement of cases pending before the Sessions Courts. The PLVs highlighted the significance of the initiative in ensuring amicable, efficient, and speedy resolution of disputes, thereby reducing litigation and promoting access to justice.

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.
