Speaking on the occasion, Ashok Koul said that the vision of ‘Viksit Bharat’ is not merely a government objective but a collective national resolve in which the younger generation has a decisive role. He said that children and youth are the future builders of the nation, and such programmes provide them an opportunity to understand the aspirations of a developed India and express their ideas with creativity and confidence.

Koul said that the ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyaan’ is taking the spirit of service, social responsibility and nation-building to different sections of society across Jammu and Kashmir. He emphasized that achieving the vision of Viksit Bharat by 2047 requires active participation and commitment from the younger generation.

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.
