Yes, you can file for quashing of 498a in High court. Section 482 of CrPC give High Court an inherent power to make such order as may be necessary and to prevent the process of court and to secure the ends of justices. If the FIR as it stands does not disclose specific allegation against accused or the co-accused the court would justified in quashing the proceedings.
