No. you can not have two Pass-Ports , but you can visit Pakistan to get Visa on Indian Passport.

You are allowed to have dual citizenship with other countries like Canada and US even while holding an Indian citizenship but I am not sure if India allows you to have Pakistani citizenship with its own. You must understand clearly the implications of your situation because in the general sense Pakistan and India don't get along too well and you have placed yourself in a very difficult position by marrying someone from Pakistan. You should have thought of all this before marriage as it is a very serious matter and not to be taken lightly. The best thing for you would be for you and your husband to decide on any one Country of preference and visit the other one.

India does not allow dual nationality with any country. Therefore, once you obtain Pak nationality you have to get your Indian passport get cancelled from the nearest Indian Mission/Consulate. It is illegal to hold natioality of another nation while holding valid Indian passport. After obtaining Pak nationality you may obtain Indian visa.

Bigamy and polygamy is illegal. I wonder how everybody missed the "Married Hindu, Indian" wants to marry a foreign Christian? That's Bigamy and it's illegal. Refer Section 494 of the Indian Penal Code, it's punishable with seven years imprisonment. I doubt if any Lawyer can get you less. Anyway, such a marriage becomes null and void under the Law, even if you do it; after the sentence which is for both participants.

I am Passport consultant based in West Delhi. You can NOT have both the nationalities or passports of 2 countries. In case you get passport from Pakistan, even then you can apply for PIO but your husband can object to this. Ab sonp diya is jeevan ka sab bhar tumare hathon mein....
