See she can be booked for fraud as well if you can prove that it is bigamy and annulment is concerned your marriage itself is not valid as per law as she is already married and to delete the names show her fraud and she will face the consequences. but for all this atleast you have to personally appear in person for filing the case as it pertains to your personal life.

yeah!your marriage is void ab initio ,you can book her for fraud.

1)yes it amounts to bigamy under section 494 of IPC
2)your marriage is void as she has concealed the fact of her previous marriage
3)disposal of case may depend upon the pend ency of cases in family court .

Yes, even though it is a abinitio void, you have to obtain annulment decree from the family court.
