No man don't need to visit india for MCD just hand over the power of attorney to your family member or attorney and you should be getting MCD although sometimes court will ask you to be present before the final decree is passed. You don't want to visit india and then get stuck for unnecessary cases in india. Also nowadays you can also pray for video conferencing for court procedures. If court ask you to be present during final decree then just show on papers that you are extremely responsible for the type of work you do and if you take any leave you will suffer extreme losses therefore you just need to hand power of attorney to your family member or lawyer and then proceed with MCD.

Also if worst comes to worst just open a LLC under your name which is about $ 100 in any state in U.S. and then just mail the copy of your business formation to court saying that you are sole proprietor of the business and if you travel or take any leave you will be incurring losses due to lack of communication.

Certain HCs have allowed MCD on Power of Attorney.
Depends on your HC, you may not need to come to India.

Please post your issue briefly in the forum. You can file MCD from US but did you check with your wife on this? No girl wants to give divorce keeping her husband safely :-) I had seen many cases. If you let me know the grounds for divorce then I can guide you in a better way.

@Tonja: while applying for MCD, should we need to provide the grounds for divorce? Wife agreed for MCD. Hence it is MCD
I suppose any lawyer would have a MCD template which could be used. correct me if I am wrong
