If 'st' value of 'c' tag is 154 , then the whole <b>to </b> tag needs to removed.Value 154 may or not be present in the file.
If the value 154 present , then the removal of the following part is needed
Code:
<b>
<c>
<st>154</st>
</c>
<d>
<st>1457954</st>
</d>
</b>

I want to do the coding in shell script. I can not use xslt because my system does not support xslt.
