Dear Querist
first question is that you are ready to divorce or not?
second any conversion certificate is avaliable with you or not? issue by pundit/purohit?
if there is no conversion certificate avaliable, you can not prove your conversion and this marriage will be declare void.
Feel free to call

Dont worry he himself admitted the marriage, you have no need to bring any certificate, it may be oral. agreed with Ajay Sethi

What do you want?
Declaring it null and void is not so easy as there is no conversion certificate issued in conversion.
If you want to contest then contest it anyway or go for compromise.
