03-Jul-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My father is threatening to leave my mother and marry another woman .His sisters and their husbands are supporting him and finding a woman for him to marry.
my father has retired from army and currently working in indian railway as trackman.
Please advice what can my mother do legally to stop him . And if he marries , will be my mother can claim money from his pension and salary from railway. what are legal action can be taken.
By marrying again while his first marriage is still subsisting, your father will be committing a punishable offence.
Bigamy (two marriages at a same time) are not permissible under Law.
If he marries still, his second marriage will be treated as null and void under law and your mother will still be considered his legal spouse.
*Your mother must seek legal advise in case she would like to keep her marriage and prevent your father from re-marrying legally.

Hello as per Hindu marriage act a married person can not perform second marriage if spouse is living without a divorce, his second marriage will become null and void and a decree can be obtained from court. But in case of muslim religion muslim laws will be applicable on marriage. your mother can claim maintenance from your father through court under 125 crpc or domestic violence act
