Hi Girish,
I am not aware of any validation support with JSONObject. The area of
JSON schema is still work in progress AFAIK.
There is some ongoing work with Jackson:

Otherwise you either have to roll your own, perhaps using a Jersey
resource filter and some annotation defining the validator. Or you
might be able to reuse Jersey's JSON/JAXB support with JAXB
validation. But, since this is pure JSON you might want to look a
little more closely at Jackson.
