DODA: A series of Mobile Medical Unit (MMU) medical camps were organised today at multiple locations across this mountainous district. The health outreach initiatives were aimed at providing a wide range of healthcare facilities directly at the doorstep of the public, particularly those residing in far-flung and underserved areas.

In Medical Block Ghat, a medical camp was organized at Village Khal.   Dr. Mirza Nadeem Beg, with the assistance of the local health staff and the MMU team, screened 79 patients and provided essential diagnostic services and medical support.

Similarly, another camp was held at Village Drone Jamani in Medical Block Thathri. Dr. Ikhlaq Hussain, supported by the local health staff and MMU team, provided necessary medical consultation and care to 68 patients.       

Free medicines were provided to all beneficiaries as per requirement at both camps. Apart from medical consultations, the staff also raised awareness among the community on hygiene, disease prevention and the importance of timely healthcare seeking behavior. The Health Department Doda continues its commitment to ensuring accessible and quality healthcare services for all sections of the population.

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.
