What are the potential consequences for those involved in the Delhi Police voter registration form forgery case?

The Delhi Police on Thursday registered an FIR against certain individuals who submitted voter registration applications allegedly using forged documents after an election officer wrote to the police, directing them to register the case.

An Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) flagged four suspicious applications during routine verification, citing the submission of forged documents as proof of identity and address. The complaint highlighted serious instances of forgery in voter ID card applications, where four individuals allegedly submitted fake documents for new voter registration and address changes, the officials said.
