The second marriage is void ab initio, a complaint u/s.498A is invalid as per my opinion.

According to me also the second marriage if the first has not been legally dissolved is not valid . Hence the question of compalint u/s 498A does not arise

Although facts in the instant case differ, that the complainant has re married during subsistence of her first marriage, it will have to be seen what supreme court has to say in such matters since it is a fact that the supreme court has over ruled or dissented some of its earlier precedents.
