How does an FIR with a name mistake affect me?
I was arrested by the police while I was drunk at night. They told me that they would release me without a fine. However, they later filed an FIR against me, including a stranger’s name as well. There is a mistake in the spelling of my name in the FIR. The status of the FIR is "referred further action dropped." What should I do now? Will this affect my eligibility for a government job? Please guide me on what steps I can take.
As the status of the FIR is "referred further action dropped, it means that the case is not actively pursued. But to avoid further complications, obtain a certified copy of the FIR and verify the details. But it will be advisable to take the legal assistance.
Since the FIR status shows "dropped," there may be no further action required. However, it is essential to get a certified copy of the FIR and seek legal advice to ensure no record affects your future job prospects. For government jobs, disclose the case when required, but if the matter is closed, it should not impact your eligibility. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
