Addressing the core political objectives of the demonstration, Tito Ganju, Chairman of Panun Kashmir, delivered a sharp critique of the institutional apathy surrounding the community's plight.

He stressed that the organization is marching to Jantar Mantar to tell the Parliament loud and clear that justice must come first, adding that the nation cannot continue to ignore their pain while discussing shifting constitutional arrangements, and that no durable solution or discussion on Kashmir's political future can occur without addressing accountability for the 1990 exodus.

He emphasized the necessity of a separate Homeland within the Union of India to facilitate a secure, dignified, and sustainable resettlement. He issued a special call to the younger generation of the displaced community to turn out in large numbers to uphold their democratic right to peaceful public expression.
Delivering the keynote address, Dr. Agnishekhar, Convenor of Panun Kashmir, stated that the proposed gathering is a democratic assertion aimed at forcing the unresolved issues of Kashmiri Hindus back into the national consciousness. He appealed to all citizens committed to historical truth and human rights to join the demonstration and stand in solidarity.
