                                 PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, pIndex, intent, 1);
                                 AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
                                              alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(),pendingIntent );


    //on reciving class
    final String action = arg1.getAction();
    if ("action_d".equals(action)) {
            // do function d

                String day = arg1.getExtras().getString("day");
                int cmonth =arg1.getExtras().getInt("month");
                int state =arg1.getExtras().getInt("state");
                int count =arg1.getExtras().getInt("count");

                if(cmonth == month ){
                    Log.v("setting alarm for ","action d recived"+day);
                 if(day.equals(cDate))
                    {

                     vibrator.vibrate(2000);
                         notification.setLatestEventInfo(arg0, contentTitle, contentText, contentIntent);
                         //notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
                         notofManager.notify(NOTIF_ID,notification);

                         Intent mIntent = new Intent(arg0,DialogActivity.class); //Same as above two lines
                              mIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
                              arg0.startActivity(mIntent);
                    }
                }



        }

You can set as many alarms as you want, the same way you are doing it now. You just need to make sure that each PendingIntent that you pass to the AlarmManager is unique. Unfortunately, the "extras" in the Intent are ignored when trying to determine the uniqueness of PendingIntents. So you'll need to provide either a unique requestCode or a unique ACTION in the Intent to guarantee uniqueness of each PendingIntent.
