The walk witnessed enthusiastic participation from students, faculty members, university administration, and heads of various departments.
Participants carried banners and placards inscribed with slogans such as "Kashmir Will Become Pakistan," "We Stand with Our Kashmiri Brothers," and "Self-Determination is the Basic Right of Kashmiri People." During the walk, attendees expressed their solidarity with the people of Kashmir and urged the international community to take notice of the ongoing Indian atrocities in occupied Kashmir and play its role in granting Kashmiris their legitimate right to self-determination.
