Ritesh, the conflict was in fact added in Debian experimental:

pm-utils (1.4.1-2) experimental; urgency=low

  [ Matt Zimmerman ]
  * debian/control: Conflicts/Replaces: laptop-mode-tools, as both ship
    /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/laptop-mode and the changelog below indicates
    these two packages should not be used together anyway. (LP: #606160)

pm-utils (1.4.1-1) experimental; urgency=low

  [ Michael Biebl ]
  * New upstream release. (Closes: #588587)
    The main improvement is that this ships some generally useful power
    management hooks by default. Note that this conflicts with similar
    packages such as laptop-mode-tools or pm-utils-powersave-policy, so you
    should not enable them and pm-utils at the same time.

Thus this is going to have to be resolved in Debian as well at some point ...
