The Ministry of Law and Justice (MoLJ) on August 14, 2026, has issued a corrigendum, correcting drafting errors in the Lakshadweep (Registration Amendment) Regulation, 2026 (Regulation No. 2 of 2026), which was originally published in the Gazette of India on February 20, 2026. The correction addresses instances where the word "Regulation" was mistakenly used instead of "Act" at various points in the original text — an important distinction, since "Act" refers to the principal Lakshadweep registration law being amended, while "Regulation" refers to the 2026 amending instrument itself. A few corrections go further, replacing general references like "this Regulation" with the full and precise name "the Lakshadweep (Registration Amendment) Regulation, 2026," to remove any ambiguity.
