I am a foreigner born a christian came here for work & got married to an Indian who turns out to be a 498 Gal. we did a Hindu marriage & got it certified as a Hindu Shaadi. As I am a Christian can it now be canceled ab initio as it was wrongly certified? Aslo this Shaadi has never been consummated

Yes, file a suit for declaring it as null and void.

how come after 2 years this query has surfaced? marriage is void .
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 27 December 2021
this step will nullify marriage. But your troubles do not end.

You entered into an illegal marriage and made a woman to believe that she is your lawfully wedded wife. You thereby obtained her consent for sex. This falls under definition of "rape" as per Indian law.

Further allegation under 498 a has nothing to do with legality of marriage.
