Subject: Re: Selecting CSS style for paragraph

Pandoc doesn't have classes and attributes for all elements. To set attributes and classes on a paragraph, you must wrap it in a div as you discovered. Then, either you change your CSS file to apply the required formatting to all paragraphs inside a div of a given class, or you can post-process the HTML file to pass the classes and the attributes on the children paragraphs.
