Section 494 in The Indian Penal Code- Marrying again during lifetime of husband or wife.�Whoever, having a husband or wife living, marries in any case in which such marriage is void by reason of its taking place during the life of such husband or wife, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine.

You cannot marry when your case is going on.
