এই ঘরে এক সময় বসতেন বহু বিখ্যাত আইনজীবী। তাঁদের মধ্যে দু একটি নাম উল্লেখ করছি । নকড়ি মুখার্জী, অমূল্য ধন মুখার্জী ,অনিল সরকার,পঞ্চানন সমাদ্দার।তারা শঙ্কর মুখার্জী,হিমাংশু মুখার্জী।আর একজনের নাম তো করতেই হবে, যার সাথে পক্ষে বিপক্ষে বহু মামলা করেছি, তিনি আলোক আদক । আমি প্রথম কোর্টে এসে অবাক হয়ে দেখেছিলাম এক তরুণ আইনজীবী সিভিল কোর্টের বাঘা বাঘা লইয়ার দের বিরুদ্ধে লড়াই করছে । আমাদের দুর্ভাগ্য অল্প বয়েসেই প্রাকটিসের মধ্যগগনে হটাৎ মারা যান। চলুন এবার ৩ নং ঘরে। এ ঘর যিনি আলো করে থাকতেন তিনি হলেন, নান আদার দেন রঞ্জিত কুমার মিত্র। সুদর্শন সুপুরুষ প্রাণবন্ত খুরোধার বুদ্ধি। খুব ব্যাস্ত উকিল ছিলেন ।

The White Paper on Indian States issued on July 5, 1948, contained a survey of the developments in respect of States during the first year of the existence of the Ministry of States.

An outstanding development during this period has been the establishment of constitutional relationship between the Centre and the State of Hyderabad.
