Is khulanama and award copy from lok adalat sufficient?

Hello,
In the process of dissolving my marriage, I have already obtained a Khulanama from H'ble Qazi and we are in the process of approaching Lok Adalat to withdraw all the cases filed against me and my family. Now the question remains whether I should still approach Family court and apply for a divorce or if the Khulanama and the award copy to be issued by Lok Adalat are sufficient for my family to be "safe" from them. An agreement was made for withdrawal of cases which included details of money towards permanent alimony and maintenance; but I had to ask this question because I don't trust my ex-wife at all. Thanks a lot for your time. Kindly advise.

Not sure if this is relevant, but just want to mention this for completeness. I belong to Muslims-Dudekula caste.

Regards,
Mustafa

Family Court has no power to issue decree of divorce on Kullanamma which by itself valid decree of divorce for Muslim divorce done by the parties in presence of witnesses and Quazi.
