Hi ! Thanks for the question!
Here her consent, even if reduced to writing, will not impair her right to subsequently criminally prosecute you for bigamy. Law does not permit bigamous marriages for Hindus. Your second marriage will be illegal, as an effect whereto your second wife will enjoy none of the rights which are bestowed on a legally married wife by the law of the land.
You are advised to get a proper legal divorce and then go for the second marriage so that the risk is eliminated. Good Luck!

IT is believed that you are all Hindu..
Is there any (proven) custom in your community that such divorce ( Community/panchayati) is acceptable.
If yes, would your spouse and community/panchayat stand by you before court!
Or Get decree of divorce from court..contested or MCD..

You are mentioning about some written statement in other thread also and that spouse has stayed for 2 days only ;

You are exploring about MCD but have mentioned about affidavit for MCD…
If spouse has agreed for MVCD then try to get waiver of cooling period and liberate from wedlock and get decree of divorce and then marry….
In case of MCD you counsel may opine that NO appeal is possible..

Mere affidavit is not sufficient..
If MCD is possible prefer IT.
