Is the ShaMe marriage illegal? Or not? - Page 3

According to the Hindu Marriage Act 1955 (India), divorce can be sought on certain grounds, some of which include adultery, cruelty, mental abnormality (all of which KN is guilty of over the years.

KN should have sought a divorce from Kesar before he married Naiki. Entering into a second marriage during the lifetime of one's spouse is bigamy. It's a criminal offence, punishable with imprisonment and fine. Kesar has to prove with witnesses (bec' she was mentally unstable at the time) that her own as well as the bigamous one have been performed properly acc' to the appropriate ceremonies. then KN should be counting bars soon if Kesar calls the cops on him. KN can get away with it if there is a part of the ceremony that was not performed the way his marriage to Kesar was completed.

Very good question and hard to answer.

I think it all depends on what happened before Shame's marriage took place. My question is before Shakti married a second time did the family declare Kesar legally insane and therefore Shakti second marriage would be legal. I don't recall them doing this because they were worried about their honor. If they didn't do this then isn't Kesar still considered to be Shakti's legal wife.

I don't know the laws of India.

All Katra Naresh had to do was get the doctor to certify Kesar showed no improvement after even a year or two and then with that report he has grounds to get a divorce. Then he could have married Naiki. But they bypassed that route bec' they figured Kesar will never recover. But she did and Naiki is now going to realize KN was never "humra pati". Don't be surprised if she brings up SDS's promise that Kesar would live in TN only as Samar's mother and Naiki would be KN's wife. Naiki may even try to get preggies as KN promised their baby would inherit all SS's wealth and Kesar's presence may be a major threat to that. But KN only has eyes for Kesar now😉. Who would've thought the woman he called all kinds of insulting names is the one who's going to turn his head this time away from Pretty Woman. Lookout...Naiki's nautanki is going to reach sky high in coming weeks as she plots and finds herself outwitted by the refreshed Kesar who's come back on a mission to teach KN and his new wife a lesson they won't soon forget.👍🏼
