The court within whose jurisdiction the branch of the bank where the payee maintains the account is situated, will have jurisdiction to try the offence. Thus, You need to get a legal notice issued from a place where you maintained a bank account. Please note it needs to be issued within 30 days from the date of dishonour of cheque

You should send the legal notice from any part of India as sending the legal notice dosent have jurisdiction conflict. however, when a case is filed under section 138 Ni act. then, the case has to be filed where the drawee maintains the account which in your case will be in Delhi. so, my advice for you will be to send the legal notice from Delhi and file a case at Delhi as well.
