71. Prayer in the present application under Section 528 of BNSS is for adding the offence of Sections 467, 468, 471 and 201 IPC (added later on) in the heading as well as in prayer clause of the main petition CRM-M34414-2025. Further prayer has been made for incorporating the
said offence in the order dated 20.08.2025 passed by this Court, whereby concession of interim bail has been granted to the applicant-petitioner. 2.
Learned counsel for the applicant-petitioner submits that initially, the FIR was registered for the offences punishable under Sections 408, 420 and 120-B IPC However, later on Sections 467, 468, 471 and 201 IPC were also added by the prosecution, which fact was not in the knowledge of the applicant-petitioner. Due to this reason, while filing the main petition, Sections 467, 468, 471 and 201 IPC could not be mentioned/incorporated in the head note and prayer clause. Thus, prays for carrying out necessary correction in the head note and prayer clause of the main petition as well as in the order dated 20.08.2025 passed by this Court.

Similarly, in the order dated 20.08.2025 in paragraph No.1, the words "under Sections 408, 420, 120-B IPC", be read as " under Sections 408, 420, 120-B, 467, 468, 471 and 201 IPC".
