Can police file FIR on false welfare scheme complaints?
If a department or competent officer does not register a complaint against a beneficiary related to corruption in government welfare schemes intended for personal or single-household employment, does the police have the right to register an FIR based on false and baseless allegations made in revenge by a common person against the beneficiary of such schemes?
If a competent officer fails to register an FIR regarding corruption in government welfare schemes, you can approach the higher authorities or the State Vigilance Commission. If no action is taken, you may file a complaint under Section 156(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code in the Magistrate's Court to direct the police to register the FIR.
