Thank you jack for the response.

So the search query string will be like -  /term?q= alpha~1

Yes, I need to implement fuzzy search. Spell check matches exact string but 
fuzzy search is done for approximately matching strings. Please correct me if 
my understanding is wrong.

Fuzzy search is the syntax for a term, not a handler. For example: alpha~1 will 
match terms that have an editing distance of 0 or 1 from "alpha".

All of the search "handlers" support fuzzy search. Some query parsers, such as 
dismax, do not, but the standard Solr query parser and edismax query parser do.

But, are you sure you really mean "fuzzy search", as opposed to, say, 
spellcheck?

Hi,

How to perform fuzzy search in solr? Which request handler is used for fuzzy 
search by default?

Regards,
Sagar
