You can apply for a visitor's visa while your spousal visa is being processed. You will need to prove strong ties to India such as property ownership, car ownership, having a stable job, etc..

There's no harm in trying for the visitor's visa because a denial won't affect your spousal visa at all.

Good luck!

you can apply, but chances are almost zero to get visitor visa while immigration is pending
