Sweety, Yes, you need consent from your first wife even under shariat law. Thats what the posts say.

Yes, You are correct. what iftikar ahmed told is wrong. As the marraige was performed under special marraige Act, first he has to get divorce from the court under the above said act. If he marries either muslim or hindu or any community bigamy he will be effected by bigamy.

No.1—When 498-A is pending he can take divorce from his wife by giving talak without the consent of wife. But whereas wife is concerned she has to obtain divorce under muslim Act by giving reasons to divorce.
No.2:-- Govt servant is not material. Whether he may be govt servant or business man or any other profession, law is equal to all persons and all professions.
No.3—Yes, as per muslim law, first wife consent is not necessary. No bigamy will be effected.
No.4—He has to take divorce by talak and then can peform second marriage.
