           "We Stand for Victim’s”

With the enactment of the Criminal Procedure Code 1973 now  Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, the Prosecution Agency was separated from the Police. Posts under the cadre of Police Prosecutors were abolished and a regular cadre of prosecutors was constituted and since then Directorate of Prosecution is working under the Home Department.

The Prosecution Department holds a vital position among the main pillars of the criminal justice system. In Himachal Pradesh, the Department not only plays a key role in the administration of criminal justice but also shoulders the responsibility of conducting both criminal as well as civil cases before the Trial Courts up to the District Judiciary. 

Our mission is:- to achieve the goals of justice by means of fair trial
