Authority: High Court of Meghalaya at Shillong

Order Date: 11.08.2026

Case Overview

  • Petitioners: Ri‑Bhoi Wine Dealers Welfare Association and another applicant.
  • Respondents: State of Meghalaya and others.
  • The petition sought an amendment to the prayer in the writ petition to correct the impugned notification number.

  • The State respondents raised no objection to the amendment.
  • The Court observed that although styled as an amendment application, the request involved only a typographical correction and therefore fell under Section 152 of the Code of Civil Procedure, permitting correction in the registry on the same day.

Final Outcome

  • The Court allowed the miscellaneous application, ordered the typographical correction of the notification number, and disposed of the case on 11 August 2026.
