In Hindu Law Bigamy is a Criminal Offence.
You have a consent of 17 yrs old female and you lived like a marreid life. If you are admitted this facts before the court then you are guilty of bigamy. Before admitted this facts you file a case for Divorce as soon as possible. If your wife lodged a F.I.R. then you face very difficulty. Contact a Lawyer with your un-marreid Partner. Remember that you have a relation of minor girl. In case of minor consent is not maintainable its only in Rarest of Rare Case.

YOU FILE CASE FOR DIVORCE AGAINST FIRST WIFE. THOUGH THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF MARRIAGE OF YOUR SO CALLED SECOND WIFE IF YOUR FIRST WIFE PRODUCED SOME EVIDENCE ORAL OR DOCUMENTRY YOU WILL BE PUNISHED HENCE IT IS BETTER TO CONTACT LOCAL ADVOCATE AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.

Any person making allegation need to prove it. In your case, your wife is alleging adultery. She has to prove it. Do not be under the wrong impression that it could never be proved if there is no proof of your adultery. The girl with whom you are living, when your relationship sour, may come forward to help your wife. No body could be believed these days.

Basically what you have done is legally wrong. You should have convinced your wife to live with you or you should have proceeded to divorce her. Only after your divorce, you could have taken recourse to what you have done now. Major thing is that the girl with whom you are living is a minor girl.
