I’m a government employee and a false case under Section 323 of the Indian Penal Code has been filed against me. If found guilty, what are the consequences? Could this affect my career?

A conviction under Section 323 of the Indian Penal Code (voluntarily causing hurt) can lead to imprisonment up to one year or a fine or both. A conviction against a government employee can affect their career, potentially leading to disciplinary action or even termination depending on the severity of the offense and the employer’s internal policies.
