Dynamic ip alias is created by the router for nat translations.  It allows the router to respond to arp requests for IP addresses not physically configured on the router.

For example you may have something like

ip nat inside source static 172.16.1.1 10.221.125.90

you could also have this overloaded using a acl or as part of a pool.

The only way to get rid of this dynamic entry would be to remove the configuration that would cause it to be added.  Check your config for nat pool or nat statement that would contain this address or the subnet it would belong to.

I checked all 6 routers for this possible ip address and nat configuration , but it was in vain.

is there any aother possibility. pls help

On the device that reports that address capture the following

show ip nat translation | inc  10.221.125.90

show run | inc  10.221.125

for that address to show up in "show ip alias" it has to be in some config on that router.
