Ok, so a bad way is to write the following code in your template.php

function THEMENAME_preprocess_page(&$vars) {
>
> if (arg(0) ==  'node' && is_numeric(arg(1))) {
>
> $node = $vars['node'];
>
> if ($node->type == 'XXXX') {
>
>                           $vars['tabs'] = str_replace('View', $node->title,
>> $vars['tabs']);
>
> }
>
> }
>
> }
>
>
and it works but i would really want to know if there is a cleaner way to do
it..

Cheers,
Mukesh
