What makes police to file FIR under 498a (3,4) in DP act for additional dowry.
Is the allegations from complainant is sufficient to book the case. Is that be taken as evidence
Or what other evidences they are supposed to look before they file FIR?

It is a cognizable offence, police can register FIR on the statement of complainanat alone, they don't need any evidences

Police is duty bound to lodge FIR on the bases of statement of complainant only and later on if contents of FIR are found false, a cancellation report is filed before court and if allegations are found supported with other evidence may be oral or documentary or both then challan under section 173 cr. PC is filed before concerned court.

There are certain offences which are cognizable,in those case police can not deny cognizance,the nature of these offences are such that police can not shut its door,what result at trail emerges is an other issue.
