Apart from this I don't want that complaniant or Police should approach to the Govt body with fake complaints/reports

You are asking this question when you can do nothing. If we say you did wrong, you shall feel it bad and shall try to get it inserted in the police record which in turn may be more painful for you so better to keep silence. Legally you were bound to disclose just about you serving and not more details as it would have served your purpose.
It is not always good to suppress material factor from State agencies.
