Nullity of marriage based on suppression of fact about relig

I need help. A Christian - Hindu marriage. The girl is Hindu but suppressed the fact about her religion during marriage and told that she was a Christian. Would this scenario favor the chance of annulling such a marriage? Considering the mentioned scenario, I have the following questions.

1. Which act should I go after for nullity in such case? Can HMA serve the purpose?

2. If not should I go for SMA or Indian divorce act?

3. If going for nullity in Indian Christian Marriage act should I file the case only in HC?

4. What christian marriage act says for such circumstance?

4. Kindly let me know the odds of filing nullity in all these acts.

5. Would having a daughter favor the girl's chances or what significance does it have in the eye of law?

Looking for help.

mr raj you got a daughter now and for the babies sake agree to let her follow her religion as per her wish.over time if she really feels that christianity is better let her convert to it.i feel religion shouldnt come as a barrier between you and your wife and spoil a childs life who doesnt know anything about god or religion.

this is my personal opinion and its upto you to take it or not.my intention is not to offend anyone
