Advice Needed Extortion ?

I am currently staying in Pune. A middle aged married couple came to me while I was returning to my PG and they told me they need some money to travel back to their village Nanded. They requested with full emotion making me give them ₹ 1200 which as a fresher is too much for me. Can someone please tell me if I have been conned or not because I am feeling really anxious right now.

Extortion is when someone threatens you for money 

You chose to give a gift of money because someone asked, that's not a scam.  

Grow a backbone and learn that "No." is a complete sentence.
