Hi,
Yes you can file for divorce in delhi.
Under section 19 of the Hindu Marriage Act 1955 Court states that every petition for divorce can be filed before a District Court within the local limits of whose original civil jurisdiction the marriage took place, respondent at the time of presenting the petition resides, or the parties last resided together or where petitioner is residing while presenting the petition but respondent resides outside the territory to which the act extends.

Thus, you can file a divorce petition at the place:
a) Where marriage took place
b) Where the parties last resided together
c) place where either husband or wife resides.

Hope you find it relevant and helpful.
