Legal Question in Administrative Law in India

I applied for a passport from my temporary address . I had been staying there from last 2 years but did not had a rent agreement as i had moved in later when one of the guys staying there left.

During passport verification at the police station they demanded rent agreement which i didn't had. A tout there promised that he makes rent agreement and he can make it for whole of my stay and i just had to submit the same,. He charged me and made it and signed himself in place of my owner and when i submitted that police inspector called up my owner and he said that he didn't had any agreement with me although agreed that i stayed there from 2 years.

Later he asked me to empty the flat which i promptly did accepting my mistake.

Can my owner charge me in forgery and cheating case, although i hadn't committed it knowingly or for any financial gains , it was just to present my address proof.

Please help!
