    Dear Madam, It is your fault that you married a person who is having a legal wife already. You may at the most claim for nullity of marriage with huge alimony. Alternatively, you may reside in the house of your husband along with first wife if she agrees for that.

    1. As legal You can't live with him but you can try by going there . 2. If he refused then you can File complain against him and his family for cheating regarding divorce, forcefully physical intercourse on the name of marriage being divorce from first wife, physical and mental torture, threats to kill you if you told anybody about your relationship with him. Put all his family members name in FIR as supporting him.

    Dear client I am sorry to hear that but in this case the second marriage comes under the purview of bigamy and is not allowed under Hindu Marriage Act. Therefore the second marriage is null and void.

    Dear Madam, It is not legal to allow the second wife to stay with first wife in the same house. The First wife if desires she can get divorce with big alimony.
