Maj Gen P Subhas, VSM laid a wreath at the Column before inaugurating the satyagraha. He said that the former soldiers were being dragged put through unfamilier drills because of the failure of the authorities to redress their legitimate grievances. Maj P M Ravindran welcomed the gathering and Col K Mohandas expressed gratitude to all those who have participated, especially those, including ladies, who had come from as far as Cherpallassery and Kollegode.

Brig MPG Menon, AVSM, Col Sivasankaran, Dinesh, Muhammed Mhatre, Vasudevan and V Premkumar spoke. They all stressed on the need for all ex-servicemen to come on a single platform and synergise their efforts to demand and get what rightfully was their due.
