Yes, that would squarely fall under the forging category. You can also prosecute him for breach of trust and forgery of valuable security.

You have a couple of options. You can file a complaint with the consumer forum for deficiency of service for compensation. Along with this complaint, you can also file a complaint with the concerned police for criminal prosecution of this person. If the police fail to register a complaint, you can, after complaining to the higher police officials, prefer a private compliant before the concerned Magistrate.
