1) No. When the facts are otherwise, u cannot say it lost. U hv to submit copy of FIR

and the progress of the case. U will be prosecuted for making wrong declaration.

2) Now-a-days Police will seriously investigate as the lost Passport might have fallen in

Terrorists hands.

3) Hv u lodged FIR with the Police? After u complain if wife says u made false complaint

u will be proved lying inferred in DV cases also.

4) Other points u have to respond as per facts.
