Advocate General of Odisha Ashok Kumar Parija Is New KIIT Chancellor

Advocate General of Odisha Shri Ashok Kumar Parija today took over as the new Chancellor of KIIT Deemed to be University. Shri Parija took charge of office from Professor Ved Prakash who completed his tenure on August 10, 2022.


​​​​​​​Welcoming Shri Parija, Dr. Achyuta Samanta, Founder of KIIT & KISS said, “Shri Parija is a renowned Odia person. In the capacity of Chancellor, Shri Parija will advise the University for the next five years. KIIT Deemed to be University will continue its journey towards educational, research and all-round excellence with renewed vigour under the able leadership of Shri Parija”. Shri Parija was welcomed to the campus by Dr. Samanta in the presence of Prof. S. K. Acharya, Pro-Chancellor, KIIT DU; Prof. Sasmita Samanta, Vice Chancellor; Prof. Saranjit Singh, Pro-VC; Dr. CBK Mohanty, Pro-VC and other senior functionaries of KIIT-DU.

Since the Chancellor’s position is honorary, it will not hamper Shri Parija’s day-to-day work as the Advocate General. Shri Parija is among the most respected advocates in the country with a long distinguished service spanning over 38 years. He was designated as a senior advocate by the High Court of Orissa in 2003 and appointed as the Advocate General by the Government of Odisha in 2019. He served as the Chairman of the Bar Council of India in 2011, the apex regulatory body for the legal profession and education, and took several steps to improve legal education in India.

 Before Shri Parija, many eminent personalities and academicians have been in the charge of Chancellor in KIIT DU from its inception. Earlier Prof. Hari Gautam, former UGC Chairman, Prof. N. L. Mitra, eminent legal academician, and Prof. Ved Prakash, former UGC Chairman were the Chancellors of KIIT DU.
