Dear One:

Sat Siri Akaal. No. In Sikhi, there are NO circumstances under which a Sikh man can be married to two living wives at the same time.

However, the man in question is EQUALLY responsible for your child, and should offer you financial and other forms of (child) support for the life he helped create. The problem you are facing must be dealt with by both you and the father of your child, not JUST you.
