Justice V. Ramasubramanian emphasised that the internship, in line with the Commission's mandate under the Protection of Human Rights Act, aims to propagate human rights discourse and provide college and university students with a comprehensive understanding of the promotion and protection of human rights. He referred to shlokas from ancient Indian scriptures to underline that compassion and forgiveness have long been hallmarks of Indian traditions and customs. He encouraged interns to use the exposure to develop greater empathy before pursuing professional roles.

The guidance aimed to encourage practical awareness and preventative approaches.
