2nd marriage is not legal in Hindu law. Whether it is done in court or arrange.
All the benefits be entitle to 1st wife.
Get your name enrolled every where in record like voter ID, rashan card and if the husband in service in his official record, LIC/insurance papers this will help you in proving you 1st wife.
If the marriage is done in court of registrar it is legal. If it is on stamp paper or affidavit then it has no legal value.
