Section 460 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 outlines the irregularities that do not vitiate proceedings, such as the issuance of a search warrant or the attachment of property by a Magistrate who lacks jurisdiction. This ensures that technical or procedural irregularities do not invalidate a trial, provided no substantial injustice has occurred.
