Shri Brij Mohan Sharma, Principle Secretary (Culture), Shri Vijay Kumar Bidhuri, Divisional Commissioner, Srinagar from the J&K Government, Police, NGOs and Civil Society were also present at the historic event and encouraged the participants.

The Cultural Fest served as a vibrant display of Kashmiri artistry and talent from renowned local artistes. Attendees had the privilege of witnessing remarkable performances and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of Kashmir. Mr. Touseef Raina, Youth Leader from Baramulla commented, "Kashmiri culture is a melting pot of diversity and faith, but today's youth show declining interest because it is not fashionable. The initiative of the army and district authorities has revived interest in our age-old traditions." Ladishah, a form of musical storytelling that combines humour and satire to address social and political issues, has been revitalized by Social Media performers like Syed Areej Safvi, Kashmir’s first female Ladishah, who has brought this tradition to a modern audience through YouTube. The success of “Kashur Riwaaj 2025” has set another benchmark for future cultural engagements in the region, uniting the youth of Kashmir in a display of tradition and patriotism.
