While affirming their unwavering faith in the deities of Himachal Pradesh, association president GC Pathak highlighted that Dev Niti (divine law) should never be misused as a shield to justify assault or misbehaviour with government officials. It stressed that any issue, even if related to religious beliefs or customs, must be resolved peacefully and respectfully, without resorting to violence.

The letter also urged the state government to ensure adequate security measures for all officers deployed on mela (festival) duties.
