Hi Ovais,

can you please post your topology, and a couple of show indicating where you
see the problem,

show mpls inter
show mpls ldp neigh
show mpls ldp disco
show mpls forwarding

in this link http://www.ciscopress.com/articles/article.asp?p=680824
you can find the the label operation by

*Pop: *The top label is removed. The packet is forwarded with the remaining
label stack or as an unlabeled packet.*
Swap: *The top label is removed and replaced with a new label.*
Push: *The top label is replaced with a new label (swapped), and one or more
labels are added
(pushed) on top of the swapped label.*
Untagged/No Label: *The stack is removed, and the packet is forwarded
unlabeled.*
Aggregate: *The label stack is removed, and an IP lookup is done on the IP
packet.
