Relational database is a collection of relations. Duplicate tuple existence is common in many real time relational databases. There is no known, simple and direct technique for finding duplicated records in relational database. In a relational database, if the same real-world entity is represented by more than one tuple, then such tuples are called duplicate tuples. Finding duplicate tuples and then replacing them by one best tuple is called a fusion operation. Whenever duplicate tuples are found in the relations of any database, those tuples must be replaced with one special best approximate tuple that represents the joint information of all the duplicate tuples. Present study proposes new techniques to find duplicate tuples and then remove those duplicate tuples with the correct real world tuples. In the first step duplicate tuples in the relation are classified based on the class label and in the second step then for each set of duplicate tuples functional dependency method or union method is applied to replace duplicate tuples with the corresponding cor
