you can keep it a secret but your second wife won't have any rights first can claim all property legal rights after death. Further if she never shows up good for as no criminal case will be Filed by her but marriage won't be valid in eyes of law.

Further if she show up she can prosecute you for bigamy and you can be punished further your second marriage shall be void.

Try contacting your wife take her consent for mutual divorce if she agree you can take a mutual divorce if not you have to file a divorce on ground of cruelty and desertion under section 13 HMA

You are bound to take divorce on ground of desertion under Section 13(1)(ib) of hindu marriage act. If you do not seek divorce and remarry you may be prosecuted for bigamy and may have to face criminal case.

You cannot remarry during subsistence of earlier marriage

If you remarry your wife can file case of bigamy against you under section 494 of IPC

Can i get married again without filing divorce.

No, that is illegal,

What if i do not publish it anywhere and my first never shows up

It will become a problem at a later stage when she comes to know about it.

What if i get married again and my first wife shows up after that

You may face the wrath of the law if she files a criminal complaint.

I am totally confused and need solid help here

Better file a contested divorce on the grounds of desertion and then marry the girl you have proposed to marry now

Your marriage with the first wife still subsisting as a decree of divorce had never been passed by court and as such you need a decree of divorce before marrying again.

Otherwise you will be committing an offence of bigamy under section 494 IPC for which a criminal complaint can be filed against you by your wife.

Even if your wife never shows up again your marriage with your second wife would never be legal as per law.

I would advice to file for divorce divorce on ground of desertion under Section 13(1)(i)(b)of Hindu Marriage Act as sulahnama in SP office cannot be said to valid divorce legally.

Feel free to call.

Regards.

Firslty, there has been a well settled law that you can’t marry without giving divorce to the first wife.

Fourthly, and you would also have to pay heavy alimony which you may not give in case of divorce on there any ground.

Fifthly, you can’t even marry during the pendency of the court otherwise that would also amount to the bigamy.

Hello sir , legally you cannot remarry untill you obtain divorce from the first wife...It is advisable to file mutual divorce with first wife as it will take only 1-2 months ... Getting married without divorce may get you in trouble from both wife if they intend to take action in future..it's better to proceed legally

If you remarry without getting divorce to first wife, you would be in trouble. It is a criminal offence. However, it is more than 2 years, your first wife is not coming back. Talk to them and arrive at a decision for taking divorce with mutual consent. In mutual consent, a joint petition is filed before the Principal Judge,Family Court that is called First Motion and after six month Second Motion is filed. Now, SC has given a judgement that if you are living separate for more than 2 years and there is no reason to wait for six months, section motion is given within 15 days of passing the first motion. So, it is better to settle the terms with first wife, move a joint petition and the problem would be over for you and for your first wife. Otherwise, you may be in big trouble. Your second marriage would be illegal.
