Land encroachment and forgery docuntations

Dear queist,

You can file complaint to local police station against your neighbour. If police dont take any action in that case you can approach the court and file complaint against the neighbour.

Hello,

Forgery has been defined under Section 463 of Indian Penal Code. The section says that whoever makes any false document or false electronic record or part of a document to cause damage, or to support any claim, or to cause any person to part with property, or to enter into a contract, or to commit fraud, commits forgery.

Section 464 explains when a person is said to make a false document or false electronic record. It says, a false document is made when someone:

1. Fraudulently makes, sign, seals or executes a document or part of a document, with the intention of causing it to be believed.
2. Or, when someone, without any authority, with dishonesty, alters a document in any material part of that document.
3. Or, whoever, dishonestly causes any person, sign, seal, execute or alter a document knowing that such person by reason of unsoundness of mind or intoxication cannot, or deception, does not know the contents of the document or the nature of the alteration.

Section 465 punishment for forgery, with imprisonment of up to two years, or fine, or both.

Section 468 defines forgery committed for the purpose of cheating, and the punishment for the same is imprisonment of up to seven years, and fine.

Section 469 talks about forgery committed to harm the reputation of any party, or knowing that it is likely to be used for that purpose. The offence is punished with imprisonment of up to three years and fine.

Hope that answers your question.
