RAMBAN: In line with the directives of Deputy Commissioner Baseer-Ul-Haq Chaudhary, the Labour Department Ramban today held a series of awareness and registration camps for labourers on the JK Samadhan Portal. The camps were held at Dalwas and Marog NH construction sites, as well as at the ALC office under the leadership of Assistant Labour Commissioner Ramban Amit Kumar, where an on-spot registration counter was set up.

 To facilitate the process, the Labour Department has been working in close coordination with Common Service Centres (CSCs) across the district and established a District Control Room to ensure maximum registration. As a result of today's efforts, over 100 labourers were successfully registered on the JK Samadhan Portal, marking a significant step towards achieving comprehensive registration of all eligible labourers in the district.

 During the camps, Assistant Labour Commissioner Amit Kumar, along with Labour Inspector Tanveer Ahmed, DEO Irfan TO, and MTS Rohit Kumar, briefed the labourers about various labour laws and welfare schemes of the J&K Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board (JKBOCWWB). The team emphasized the importance of registration and encouraged workers to avail themselves of the government benefits designed for their welfare.  The workers can contact Tanveer Ahmed (DEO) at 9797354805 for more information and assistance regarding registration.

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.
