There are certain laws in India which governd Marriage with a foreigner. Which is governed under special marriage act. To get you marriage registered in India under that act you'll be requiring documents of your foreign partner like passport , passport size photograph, DOB proof, address proof, single status affidavit.

A.See it is not that easy to marry a person of foreign nationality and that are certain procedure that you will have to follow. It is not that you cannot. Certainly you can but only after you have gone through the due process and have all the papers and the permissions.
She will have to get some approvals from her country and embassy showing that she is from Bangladesh and is unmarried then she will have to come and stay here for few days, which she is already doing. You will have to apply here to the marriage registrar with all the documents then get the marriage registered.
