Legal Question in Family Law in India

Hi.. me and my GF was married last Dec and registered in register office.

Now we both were decided to seperate. Our family doesnt know about this marriage.we dont want to be husband and wife.She is ready to marry another guy,

My questions are:

1)If she register her second marriage, Is there anyway our first marriage reflect on the second marriage registration ? (If she register on the other place)

2)I heard there is no option to cancel the marriage.. Is it true? (without Divorce)

3)If we can register our marriage seperatly (she register another place and i register someother place), It will not show anyway

Note: we have signed on document,I'm sure its not updated on the computer, If so how can they find out the marriage certificate and not able to get where the marriage was done... am i right... we never told anyone.

Please suggest me.. I'm totally confused..

Please clarify my doubts by each questions.

Thanks in Advance

it is an offence to give wrong facts or conceal true facts before the registrar of marriages. these days procedure is computerised. there is every likelihood of being caught. mind, world is too small. Your only option is to go for mutual divorce u/s 13 HMA. But that can also take place not before Dec 2011. there has to be one year seperation. After filing petition, it will take another six months. then only she may marry.

I agree with the above opinion. However, if adequate grounds are available in terms of the H.M.A., annulment of marriage can also be sought with immediate effect.
