Quick Summary

If a crucial witness was accidentally left off the initial list in a criminal case, you can still present their testimony. The court can be convinced by filing a supplementary list explaining the witness's relevance. Alternatively, Section 311 of the Cr.P.C. allows the court to summon or examine any witness deemed material for a just decision, even if they weren't initially listed.

You can invoke Sec 311 of Cr.P.C to call or get examined any witness if he is material and essential witness for just and proper decision of case even though his name was not mentioned in list of witnesses.
