# A Salute to Parijat Chanda, Advocate

### Chief Public Prosecutor, District South 24 Parganas at Alipore

The appointment of **Parijat Chanda, Advocate**, as the **Chief Public Prosecutor for the District South 24 Parganas at Alipore**, on **11th August, 2026**, is indeed a moment of great pride and distinction. It is a responsibility that carries with it not merely a position of authority, but a profound duty towards the administration of criminal justice and the rule of law.

Advocate Parijat Chanda is known for his **gracious and dignified behaviour, courteous disposition, professional integrity and outstanding knowledge of law**. His ability to understand legal issues with clarity, coupled with his experience and commitment to the profession, makes him eminently suited to shoulder such an important responsibility in the justice-delivery system.

What makes this occasion even more remarkable and memorable is the fact that **11th August is also his date of birth — 11.08.1980**. Thus, the day on which he has been entrusted with this distinguished responsibility coincides with the day on which he entered this world. Such a coincidence makes the occasion truly auspicious and unforgettable. It is, in every sense, a remarkable birthday gift earned through years of professional dedication, learning and service to the legal fraternity.

The office of the Chief Public Prosecutor demands much more than knowledge of statutes and precedents. It requires **wisdom, fairness, courage, patience, integrity and an unwavering commitment to justice**. A Public Prosecutor is an important officer of the Court, whose ultimate responsibility is not merely to secure convictions, but to assist the Court in arriving at the truth and ensuring that justice is done in accordance with law. The confidence reposed in Advocate Parijat Chanda therefore reflects the recognition of his professional competence and his capacity to discharge this solemn responsibility.

His **pleasant behaviour and approachable personality** are equally valuable qualities. The legal profession is not confined to arguments and judgments; it is also about relationships, mutual respect, understanding and maintaining the dignity of the institution. His conduct and professional temperament have helped him earn the respect of colleagues and members of the Bar.

As he assumes this important office, one may reasonably hope that his **knowledge of law, professional experience, balanced approach and commitment to justice** will contribute meaningfully to the effective functioning of the prosecution system in South 24 Parganas.

**11th August, 2026, therefore, shall remain a doubly memorable day in the professional and personal journey of Parijat Chanda, Advocate — a day of responsibility, recognition and celebration.**

On this auspicious occasion, I extend my **heartiest congratulations and warmest wishes** to him. May he discharge his new responsibility with distinction, wisdom and courage, and may his tenure as Chief Public Prosecutor strengthen the cause of justice and public confidence in the legal system.

**My sincere salute to Advocate Parijat Chanda on this remarkable enrichment of his professional journey and on his assumption of such a significant responsibility in the process of justice delivery.**

**Congratulations and best wishes on this memorable occasion.**

*With highest regards and best wishes,*
