Instead of modifying in the BaseActionHandler class, you should override the getJSPPath method in the handler class of your custom action which should return the custom location of the jsp.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

thanks romschn,
yes, the way you are suggesting could also be the correct one.
But after modifying BaseActionHandler, there was a configuration to be overridden in we-client-config-custom.xml, The RunAction Wizard.

<page path=“/jsp/extension/actions/actions.jsp” title-id=“run_action_step1_title” description=“” instruction-id=“default_instruction”/>

And <action-handler> tag also.

I have accomplished this now.
Thanks for your input.
