Your question is self contradictory as you have written 'But police added IPC section 307'.... However, in the next line you have mentioned as IPC section '308 Doctor ke Byan se lagi ja police ne jaan bujh kar laga dee'. from it I am unable to understand what is your proposition. For the sake of information it is added that IPC Section 307 is about attempt to murder whereas Section 308 IPC denoted for attempt to Culpable Homicide. Moreover the IPC sections are to be mentioned in FIR/Criminal case as per your statement recorded before the police as well as in the light of opinion of the Doctor. As if you have given statement before police as to the fact that the accused caused the injuries with an intention to murder then section 307 IPC attracted otherwise section 308 IPC attracted. Similarly if Doctor opined that the injuries are dangerous to life and are caused with blunt weapon weapon then generally police added Section 308 IPC otherwise if Doctor opined that the dangerous to life injuries caused by fire arms, or sharp edged weapon then Police added section 307 IPC.
