From his early years, Mitranjan’s aspirations were shaped by his parents’ dreams, rather than conventional career paths.

Additionally, Mitranjan oversaw the construction of an Intake Jetty Mounted Pumping Station on the River Ganga, alleviating water scarcity issues in Khidderpore, Kolkata.

However, amidst professional success, Mitranjan faced personal adversity with the sudden loss of his father in March 2020, followed by his mother’s passing in February 2021.
