hi. since both parties have come to a compromise, it is better to file a compromise petition at medchal court only as transfer of criminal case from medchal court to LB Nagar court is a complex process where in parties have to approach high court and transfer of files takes about 6 months. if you have constraints in going to medchal, you(husband and wife) can approach high court and file a quash(sec 482 cr.p.c) petition and get medchal proceedings dispensed.
