Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

I have had sexual intercourse with a married women who was residing at her sasural on her consent with the promise to marry with her.A Panchayat was subsequently convened

but I did not accede to its verdict .Again I gave an

assurance that the case will be compromised and further I will marry

with her and will reside at Darbhanga. Subsequently, case was

withdrawn and on account thereof, her husband ousted her. I continued with the aforesaid behaviour and always assured

her that marriage will be solemnized.All of a sudden after some days I got married with another women.

will i be punishable under section 376 ipc.?

or please provide me any judgement of supreme or any high court related to this matter..
