The provided text is a standard MIT License notice. It isn't source code, it's a software license agreement that governs the usage and distribution of a piece of software. These agreements are usually standardized legal documents and don't need to be written or modified by a programmer.
In this case, there seems to be no issues or mistakes in the license notice—it correctly and completely specifies the MIT License, including the copyright holder, permission statement, conditions, and disclaimers.
However, reviewing for improvement, there's very little to assess or suggest:
-
Ensure the copyright year and the name of the person/organization are correct. If not, replace "2019" and "Siddhant Mishra" with the correct year and copyright holder name respectively.
-
Usually, the software project's name could also be included. If you like, you could make it a little bit more specific like: "Copyright (c) 2019 Siddhant Mishra, [Project name]".
-
Although it's not an issue, but do make sure that an MIT License matches the intentions for the use of your software. It's one of the most permissive licenses, allowing for reuse in any manner, including proprietary use, as long as the license and copyright notice are included.
Ultimately, the major work here is not in the "coding" of the license (since it's mostly a copy-and-paste job), but in the legal and strategic decision of how you want your software to be used, reused, sold, and altered.

This is a standard MIT license and it seems correctly formatted and detailed. It does not contain any code, rather, it's a legal agreement that specifies the terms of use for the software. As such, there isn't any specific coding logic or programming practices to evaluate or critique in these terms.
However, if you want to enhance this, here's a small suggestion:
You may wish to update the copyright year to the current year, or specify a range if the software has been in development for multiple years. For example:
Copyright (c) 2019-[current year] Siddhant Mishra
This small change would keep the copyright current.
Moreover, remember to replace "[current year]" with the actual current year. This isn't a program, so it won't automatically update.
Also, ensure this license aligns with the desired openness and usage of the software being developed. Different licenses offer different levels of freedom for reuse, distribution, and modification.
Lastly, make sure to include the license in every relevant source file, not only in the root directory of your project.
