Section 213 requires the manner of offence to be stated when basic particulars (time/place/person) don't give sufficient notice. Theft at a time and place is self-explanatory. But cheating (how was the deception done?) and false evidence (which portion is false?) require manner specification.
The text reads: Section 213 Illustration (a): Theft charge need not set out the manner. But cheating, false evidence, and disobedience charges must state the manner.
