RAMGARH: Jammu & Kashmir Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) organized a major plantation drive at Treli in Rajpura, Ramgarh Constituency taking the message of clean and green Earth to different regions of Jammu & Kashmir.

J&K BJP President Sat Sharma (CA), along with MLA Dr. Devinder Kumar Manyal, planted 75 saplings of fruits, flowers and medicine plants to mark the 75th birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and laid the foundation for a Green Diversity Park in the area.

The initiative was carried out under the BJP’s Clean and Green Earth campaign, aligning with the Prime Minister’s vision of creating sustainable, eco-friendly surroundings for future generations. J&K BJP Vice-President Rashpaul Verma, District President Asha Rani, District Seh-Prabhari Manmohan Singh, and several senior party leaders and activists were present on the occasion.

Speaking on the occasion, Sat Sharma emphasized the significance of such initiatives in the overall development model of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that planting trees is not just an environmental act, but a moral responsibility towards future generations. He said that under the leadership of PM Modi, India has not only scaled new heights in infrastructure, economy, and global standing but has also stressed deeply on harmony with nature. This Green Diversity Park will stand as a symbol of our collective resolve to protect the environment and contribute towards a cleaner, greener India, he said.

Rashpaul Verma, speaking on the occasion, stressed on the social causes undertaken by the BJP on the call of PM Modi and said that the core ideological principles of BJP which include Integral Humanism teach us how to see the human and the environment with a broader perspective.

Dr. Devinder Kumar Manyal, on the occasion, highlighted the importance of the initiative, stating that this plantation drive is a humble step towards ensuring a pollution-free and healthy environment for our people. He said that every sapling planted today will grow into a source of life and clean air, benefiting the coming generations. He also called for the enthusiastic participation from the local people and party workers to safeguard the planted saplings and extend the green campaign in their respective areas.

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.
