Wrong section section 243(3) instead of 242(2) cr.p.c by complainant

The facts, as posted, are less than convincing. The public prosecutor has no stnading in a complaint case.

Merely mentioning wrong provision of law in a court documents or application does not invalidate the proceedings or relief.Court has power to grant the relief under the correct provision. Court focus on the substance of the matter and the intention behind the action rather than the technical error in citing the law.

In criminal cases, wrongly quoting a provision of law, while not ideal, is generally not fatal to the case if the court has the jurisdiction to address the matter and the substance of the case is clear. Courts prioritize substance over form, especially when the intention and relief sought are apparent and the error doesn't mislead or prejudice the other party.  Courts are more concerned with the core arguments and the relief sought by a party rather than the specific legal provision cited.
