DODA: In a significant step towards enhancing healthcare accessibility, the Block Medical Officer (BMO) Bhaderwah, Dr. Mohd Ashraf Kuchay, under the direction of CMO Doda, Dr. Om Kumar, organized a free multi-specialty mega health camp at Bhartiya Vidya Mandir High School, Bhaderwah.

The initiative was part of the ongoing Swachhata Pakhwada campaign, aimed at providing complimentary medical services to students under the School Health Programme, ensuring quality healthcare is accessible to all. The camp offered a wide range of specialized medical services, with consultations from experts across various fields.

 Over 300 students and school staff members were examined by a dedicated health team, which included Dr. Subash Sharma (Surgeon Specialist), Dr. Priya Manhas (ENT Specialist), Dr. Touseef Shoket (Dental Surgeon), Dr. Saima (MO AYUSH), Dr. Sheenam (MO RBSK), and paramedical staff. Their collective efforts were instrumental in the camp's success.

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.
