Soon after the oath ceremony, Gupta expressed his desire to rebuild Ladakh and make it a global tourism destination.

“I have been appointed here to the post of lieutenant governor. I want to assure the people of Ladakh that rising above religion, caste, and party politics, we will all work together to rebuild a new Ladakh,” Gupta told reporters soon after taking over as lieutenant governor. He further said, “There is still a lot that needs to be done. There is no doubt that Ladakh faced a lot of discrimination in the past.”
