Hmm, it means that your source tree is somehow broken.

              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hmm, you downloaded helpcontent2 sources from ooo310-m19 (OOo-3.1.1 sources)
instead of build/ooo320-m12 (OOo-3.2 sources) => there is a mess

I do not understand how this directory was created. The upstream sources can 
be downloaded in two ways:

   + as a tarball, so you would have 
     /home/abhishek/GSoC/ooo-build/src/ooo320-m12-help.tar.bz2

   + clonig the git tree, so you would have:
     /home/abhishek/GSoC/ooo-build/src/clone/help

The job is done by the script /home/abhishek/GSoC/ooo-build/download

The sources are uncompressed/copied to the build dir by the script
/home/abhishek/GSoC/ooo-build/bin/unpack

Did you play with ooo310-m19?
Did you download and unpack the help source tarball manually?

Quick workaround:

	+ get OOO320_m12.tar.bz2 from
          http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ooo-build/help/
	+ uncompress it and copy the helpcontent2 dir
          into  /home/abhishek/GSoC/ooo-build/build/ooo320-m12
	+ build and deliver it using the steps described in the previous mail

Clean solution:

	+ do clean build; start from fresh ooo-build sources
