The Symposium has been organized by Vishwagram, a non-profit organisation dedicated to fostering education, compassion, art and service across India.

In his address, the Lieutenant Governor spoke about a new vision of a rising Jammu Kashmir that is peaceful, fear-free, prosperous, united and in which every citizen is empowered and touched by India's rapid progress.  He said huge sacrifices have been made in last 5 years to make Jammu Kashmir where it is now.

"The peace visible in Jammu Kashmir today has given an opportunity to all to flourish with mutual respect and everyone is getting equal opportunity to live a dignified life. One can see the impact of Peace, efforts of people for a better tomorrow and immense possibilities for all without any discrimination. Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, we have followed the principles of people-first, social justice and equality, which has transformed both the lives of the people and this crown jewel of the nation," the Lieutenant Governor said.

The Lieutenant Governor also highlights the strong resolve to dismantle terror ecosystem and affirmed the commitment to maintaining peace, justice and equity. “We are determined for strengthening socio-economic development and to turn the dreams of our youth into reality,” he said. The Lieutenant Governor said that within five years, our brave forces and J&K Police have created a Jammu Kashmir in which the sound of ragas and new enthusiasm has replaced the sound of bullets and grenades.

“We have created a Jammu Kashmir, in which the walls of schools are echoing not with the clash of stones but with the laughter and innovation and education of children. We have created a Jammu Kashmir, in which towns like Pulwama, Shopian and Kulgam, once shrouded in silence, have transformed into cultural and literary centres for the youth. Markets like Lal Chowk and Polo View are no longer deserted but are glowing with new vitality. We have created a Jammu Kashmir, in which new aspirations are floating on the waves of Vitasta," the Lieutenant Governor said.

The Lieutenant Governor said the people of Jammu Kashmir are the very heartbeat of peace. He called upon all sections of society to work as a single, unified force against elements attempting to disrupt peace, and to counter the threats of drug addiction and youth radicalization. He said everyone must follow rule of law for peace, progress and prosperity.

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.
