Re: Marriage

There is no way a second woman may become legal wife; but if the first wife has no objection, you may marry him as per Hindu rites and ceremonies; because ONLY she can file a complaint of bigamy and if her consent is there, then there will be no hassle; though the marriage may still be not legally valid; but you will get all the legal rights including maintenance, inheritance etc. and your children will be legal;
