No, regardless of religion, you cannot marry another man while still being married to your husband. Doing so would be considered bigamy, which is a punishable offence under Section 494 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (IPC).
If you are already married and want to marry someone else, you need to first obtain a divorce from your current husband. The divorce can be obtained through mutual consent or on grounds such as cruelty, desertion, adultery, or mental disorder, among others, as per the provisions of the Indian Divorce Act, 1869, or the Special Marriage Act, 1954, depending on your religion and circumstances.
It is important to note that bigamy is a serious offence and can lead to imprisonment and other legal consequences. Therefore, it is advisable to follow the legal procedure for divorce and remarriage, rather than engaging in illegal activities.
