Since the husband is still an Indian and resident of India , he can visit a Quazi and give her a triple talaq in presence of two witnesses and obtain a talaqnama.

As their marriage had taken place as per Muslim rituals so divorce can also be given as per Muslim law prevailing in India.

Twist in the tale.

According to Shariah, whenever there is a dispute between the customs of bride and groom. One Shia other Sunni, One Muslim other Kitabia, One from Jurisdiction A other from B. The law of the respondent is applicable for Talaaq.
