Dear, In India, a boy cannot marry before completing 21 years of age under The prohibition of Child Marriage Act. You did a mistake by marrying when you were 19 that too in the presence of your wife's mother. Be that as it may, if your wife files any case ( the nature of case is not known) against you, contest the case on merits. you can also file a counter case on her ( divorce under ground of adultery) or under 497 IPC bringing out the facts about her extra marital affair with the other person if you have solid proof. Hope this helps.

in whatever manner you got married the girl is not a matter, now both of you are wife and husband. As your wife is having some illegal contacts with another guy, you can take legal action against her.

See your marriage is not a valid marriage. You make it clear whether any temple authorities have given You ha receipt for the marriage. Any photographs being taken. If she is threatening to file a case against you then first disclose the same to your parents.

Dear Client, As per law it is not treated as marriage. You tied only mangala sutram to her in a temple, only her mother is there. As per Hindu Rites and Ceremonies tying of tali or mangala sutram is only one of the Ceremonies that to in presence of priest while chanting mantras. All the Ceremonies like seven steps around sacrad fire and other allied ceremonies must be complied with. So you need not apply for divorce. Valid evidence must be there for valid marriage. Even if you marry another woman and if this girl files any case you must project your case by engaging an expert advocate that it is not a valid marriage.
