Yes, you can change your statement in a trial, even if you have already given a statement under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). Section 164 CrPC provides that a witness can be made to give a statement before a magistrate in certain cases. it does not say that the statement cannot be changed later.
