Hello Tom !
Thank you for your reply. I have the 2nd edition ( Low Price Edition ).
Here is my question rephrased.
The sifting property for the cts dirac delta fn has an INTEGRAL.
The sifting property for the discrete delta fn has an infinite sum in it.
So we cannot 1st say as is said in the book that delta is the Dirac delta
function and the coolly proceed and apply the sifting property of the discrete
delta function as has been done below.
Do you see my question ?
Thank you for your effort,
Ashim.

Which edition are you using? I have the second edition and this is on
page 142 :) I'm assuming your copy is a new edition.

They are still representing all of this in the time domain. The sampling
function is a continuous time signal as is x_c(t) as it x_s(t) where the
discrete time representation is x_s[n] = x_s(nT).
I don't see this as a typo, and I don't see how this changes anything.
