IGP Drags Senior Police Officers to Court for Age Falsification

The court documents reveal discrepancies in the officers' declared birth dates compared to official records. The accused officers, however, claim the case is politically motivated.
The charges against them are punishable under specific penal code sections. The case highlights the issue of integrity and compliance within the police force.
