Dear client,
Firstly, take note that 2nd marriage while the first wife is liviing is a N.C. offence u/s 494 IPC.
If you are lawfully married to him, you must have proof. If he ( your husband ) has not divorced you and got married (not a muslim), then he has committed the offence of bigamy.
You can certainly proceed against him in the court. Your contention that the second marriage took place in Mantralay is hard to believe and ridiculous. Hearsay is of no use. You should have solid proof of the 2nd marriage. Discuss with your lawyer.

With reference to the above statement, as per the marriage act we have to see the first whether the marriage is valid or not and then we have to go ahead for that you have to consult with advocate for getting more details
