Second marriage proof required in court


12-Aug-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I am separated from my husband from 7 years. My husband has secretly done his second marriage and they have a child from his second marriage. He has done registered court marriage from some city, but I don't know the place from where he has got his marriage certificate. How can I proof in court that he has done second marriage. I understand verbal statement and photo evidence will not work and even I don't have any pics or his verbal statement in which he said he has got married. I came to know from some close source. Question 1: Is there any way to get his marriage certificate for his second marriage? Question 2: Can I file a RTI for the child to get his parents information, I don't have any relation with that child, as I am neither in his blood relation nor his legal parent ? Question 3: Can I ask court to request for DNA test for that child?

Hire a private investigator who can find proof that your second marriage is valid. A detective agency can investigate the background of your husband. You can get a copy from the government office that issued your marriage certificate.
