IE Error TypeError: Unable to get value of the property 'set': object is null or undefined

I am getting the following error when i run my web application in IE9. The application is using Struts and DOJO UI.

Development console is showing:

TypeError: Unable to get value of the property 'set': object is null or undefined 

This error does not occur in FF or other browsers. I have looked at other solution to this issue and none seems to remedy my problem.

I have tried using tag in the head of my web page:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

The JavaScript which it is failing on:

require(["dojo/on", "dojo/dom", "dojo/_base/lang", "dojo/domReady!", "dojo/query","dijit/registry"],
  function (on, dom, lang, query) {

    $(document).ready(function () { 

      var addButton = dijit.byId('addName');

      if(addButton){
          addButton.on('click', function (evt) {
              evt.preventDefault();
              grid.addRecord('name');

            });       
      }
});
