JAMMU: The Akhil Bharatiya Rashtriya Shaikshik Mahasangh (ABRSM) has termed the alleged rape of a 14-year-old student an extremely serious, unfortunate and shameful incident and has demanded the strictest action under law against the accused teacher, Khalid Hussain.

ABRSM State President Rattan Sharma expressed deep concern over the incident and urged the Jammu and Kashmir Government to ensure a fair and speedy investigation. He further demanded that, if the allegations are proved, the accused should be dismissed from service and awarded the strictest punishment as per law.

He stated that a teacher holds a highly respected position in society as a mentor, guide and character-builder. An alleged incident of such a grave nature involving a minor student by a teacher is deeply disturbing and casts a serious shadow on the reputation of the entire teaching community. Schools must remain safe spaces where children can learn, grow and develop without fear. Any compromise with the safety and dignity of children is unacceptable.

The Mahasangh has urged the Government to strengthen child-protection mechanisms in all educational institutions, ensure effective monitoring of teachers’ conduct, strengthen grievance-redressal systems, and guarantee immediate action on complaints raised by children.

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.
