Having gone through the said affidavit and the documents annexed i.e. letter dated 31st March 2018 at Exhibit R-1 and the Notification dated 3rd April 2018 at Exhibit R-2, it is clear that the State has notified the amendment in Rule 3(b)(i) after existing Rule 3(b) of Bombay High Court Appellate Side Service Rules 2000.
