the log that is mentioned here, will have the word alive or not and if the word alive is missing for more than the interval (30s), then it should alert.

I need to check what changes needs to be done to make sure the alert is triggered if the word alive is missing for more than 30 seconds?

First make a script that will watch the logfile ( while :; sleep 30; ... ) and can call a function when alive is missing. Use zabbix_sender for alerting Zabbix.
Alternatively you can send a message every 30 seconds to Zabbix and make a trigger in Zabbix when it is silent, but that will cause a lot of communication (do not save historical data here).
