Dear Sangeeth,

The Agreement is voidable in so far the clause governing Guarantee is concerned rest of the clauses shall still be valid in the eyes of law. As per the Criminal law the person responsible for committing forgery is responsible whether he is guarantor himself or any body else for that reason.

Best Regards
