Dear Piyush Jain,

Please use the mailing list in CC for these messages as there are
several devs involved.

There is some clipper functionality already added to geometry. Maybe
you can extend that somehow? Currently we use it only for orinetatin
of polygons. Philip Neuhuis can guide you better on the needs he has
form the clipper library.
