There is no official legal penalty or fine, just a friendly warning plus social consequence.
We might lose respect, trust, or a good reputation in the neighborhood and neighbours may be less willing to help you when your family needs assistance.

But, could that happen anyway if they deem you voted for the wrong person?

There's a different way for doing the 'not voting' thing though.

That's what we usually do rather than not showing up at voting place at all.
