As you all guys here seems quite professional or individual having enough knowledge about open source and Linux technology! What I want you, what suggestion you want to give me to attain my goal and learn Linux on my own, any special book or you want to recommend! It will be very helpful.

Warm Regards

find something you want to do with Linux then learn how. move on to the next thing you want to do with Linux then learn how to do that.
great motivator

Anything you'd do with microcoughed-losedough$ can be done FREE in GNU\Linux except for some proprietary reasons (eg school in a capitalists world(!)) then you just run m$ in a VM!

Hi Sunil

By your name you are from India. Which part of India?

I take it that you are a student who has time to learn linux. If this is so, then you might be knowing little bit about C. If that is so, then first learn to compile and run "hello world". It will give you confidence.

Whether or not you know C, learn basics of shell (bash) and python.

Simultaneously understand redirection and pipes in shell (bash). This will make you to know how output of one program can be used in the next program.

This will get you started.

OK
