As per Hindu Marriage Act, and other Indian Laws, you cannot get married second time without legally divorcing your first wife. You may be charged for bigamy at the instance of your first wife. Therefore, you need to get divorce first by serving her abroad through divorce notice & then you can go for your second marriage.

You are not allowed to marry unless you are divorced from your wife. You are required to file a case of Divorce and obtain an Ex Party Divorce, because your wife will not be able to fight her case of divorce, being staying away from India.

Hello, First thing better not remarry without legally divorcing the first wife because 2nd marriage without divorce will considered illegal, null and void. You can file a divorce petition and afterwards can proceed with second marriage.....

when was the case for grant of maintenance dismissed,you have to clarify.. has your wife left your company or you have left the company has to be specified..otherwise living seprate for such a long period is a good ground of divorce on the ground of desertion... as far as marrying again,yes there should be no problem,because your wife cannot lodge an FIR and can only file a pvt complaint case in trial court,incase she chooses to and for that she has to be present in court for each date of hearing
