Demand for money made by wife's family, husband was married earlier


22-Jun-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I had a girl friend with whom we got married in arya samajh. Due to family issue , we took divorce by mutual consent. Now she got married to some one and I too got married to someone. My present wife got to know about my previous marriage and divorce as she has seen my what's app message which I forgot to delete. I tried to convince a lot and took help of parents as well. Nothing works out . Her family members are demanding unexpected money which I can't give. Although they don't have any proof my last marriage. That's I m sure. It's been more than six months, she is staying in her family father's home. Although I agreed to give them money and said to file for divorce but they are demanding money first . Pls suggest what action should I take ..or what they do against me.

There is nothing to worry about, you must not succumb to their blackmailing tactics, as divorce(e) is as good as unmarried. Moreso, it seems you don't have any issue(s) from your previous marriage. Nothing to worry about irrespective of proof or no proof of previous marriage, need not pay heed, just try to reconcile with your wife...
