Second marriage in islam through court

Dear Members! I filed restitution but the respondent did not take any interest to join at its near two years.Though Islam permits polygamy since we live in India and we have a muslim personal law.But without intimation to court  second marriage may be punishable as it is mentioned in The muslim family laws ordinance,1961 which is applicable in India and PAK.I request the experts what would be the correct procedure to go for second marriage through court.What are the prerequisites  to go for the second marriage as per the Indian law and muslim personal law.May be the first wife claims for maintenance if i go for second marriage without intimation." I would also request the experts to mail the applicationformat for second marriage.Here it mentions the ARBITRATION COUNCIL The muslim family laws ordinance,1961 CAN ANYBODY CLARIFY THIS

iS THER A CHANCE to get the maintenance if i go for second marriage through a proper channel?"

To my knowledge the ordinance mentioned by you is not applicable to India.  In India polygamy is permitted even without the permission.
