REASI: Deputy Commissioner Reasi Kumar Abhishek chaired a meeting of the District Level Implementation Committee for Mission YUVA to review implementation of the scheme and approve fresh loan applications of aspiring entrepreneurs.

196 cases verified by the Small Business Development Units (SBDUs) were presented before the committee and, after scrutiny, approved for financial assistance, capacity building and handholding support under Mission YUVA.

Reviewing progress of training batches under Mission YUVA, the Deputy Commissioner directed officers concerned to initiate fresh training batches at the earliest and intensify awareness campaigns under Udyam Jagriti in all blocks and panchayats — particularly among SHG members — on the scheme's subsidy benefits, and directed bank officials to fast-track sanctioning and disbursal processes, coordinate closely with Business Help Desks (BHDs) and properly inform beneficiaries of required documents to avoid delays.

Among those present were Additional Deputy Commissioner Krishan Lal, General Manager DIC, Assistant Director Employment, District Manager NRLM, Lead District Manager (LDM) and other officers concerned.

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.
