SAMBA:  Continuing the public outreach program across the district, the Apni Party Provincial President, Jammu, and Former Minister, S. Manjit Singh has expressed concern over poor implementation of civic-works in Bari Brahmana. “The state in which the people have been forced to live is inhuman, and intolerable without proper roads, and basic amenities,” said S. Manjit Singh, while speaking at a meeting in ward number 13, Municipal Committee, Bari Brahmana in Samba District.

The Former Minister was accompanied by Ex-Corporator, Shamsher Chand. The participants in the meeting informed about their displeasure over the ignorant attitude of the authorities, and respective departments which are responsible for developing the infrastructure.

Addressing the meeting, the Former Minister expressed his concern, while assuring that the people will not be left helpless, and voiceless as the Party is committed to work for their overall development. “We are committed to ensure equitable development in all the regions of Jammu as well as Kashmir. The administration has disappointed the people with their autocratic attitude,” he said.

The circumstances have widened the gap between the people and the administration that showcases the failure of the Govt to work for the public welfare, he added. On the other hand, he said that the people are also concerned over the weakening of an elected Govt in Jammu and Kashmir with the empowerment of the Governor of J&K. “The statehood restoration of J&K is must as well as the full empowerment of the elected Govt following the assembly elections that are proposed to be held in the erstwhile state,” he stated.

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.
