J&K Bank is not just a financial institution, it is movement fuelled by the trust, confidence and cooperation of the people of J&K. It is an asset of the people of the state and needs to be promoted and supported at all levels by the people of the state. This movement aims at transforming J&K into a financially sound economy with empowered individuals.

Stating that J&K Bank has right from its inception worked for making people of J&K financial empowered and self-reliant, Lone said, "Our history has been the history of transformation of peoples' lives by making them financially empowered and self reliant. We have all along the journey innovatively exploited the potential of state's economy", adding that "our creative financial intervention has led to the boost of key sectors like agriculture, horticulture, handicrafts and tourism, and in the process, lives of hundreds of thousands of people have been made better".
Stressing that J&K Bank, unlike other banks operating in the state, doesn't believe in selective or elite class banking, Lione sought peoples' cooperation in helping J&K Bank retain its monopoly in the J&K state.
