Any action at this point of time would be a futile exercise as you are not having any substantive proof of the alleged fact. You do not need to take any steps to restrict your husband from remarrying, as law will take its own course if he does so. If your husband contracts marriage without giving you divorce/ during your lifetime (if not divorced), he will be liable to be punished U/s. 494 of the Indian Penal Code. Under the said section the accused is punishable with a imprisonment of upto 7 years and shall also be liable to fine.

Namaste!

At the given stage, you may hold him liable for bigamy. This is owing to the fact that he can not marry another woman, while he is still married to you. As per the law, he is married to you until he obtains a decree of divorce from the court of law.

You may be able to prevent him from committing the same, by telling him that you would file a criminal complaint if he marries, until the decree of divorce is finalised and given in his favour.

I would love to assist you. Do get in touch if you may like to turn the situation in your favour.

Since you came to know through your nears and dears that your husband is getting remarried in a month without taking divorce. Get assistance from the detective agency so that full proof of marriage can collected and some photographs. Thereafter you can file a criminal complainant of bigamy against your husband and proceed accordingly.
