I was desperately looking for something like this
http://julien.danjou.info/blog/2012/gnus-notifications.

I thought of setting this up but I could not make it work.

I tested this using the following expression and it works.

(gnus-notifications-notify "Noorul" "Testing notification" nil)

And I added the following line in .gnus.el

;;; Notification
(add-hook 'gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook 'gnus-notifications)

But when I press 'g' from groups buffer, I am not getting any
notifications even if I have new mails. Am I missing something?

>From describe variable:

gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook is a variable defined in `gnus-start.el'.
Its value is (gnus-notifications gnus-display-time-event-handler)
Original value was 
(gnus-display-time-event-handler)

Thanks and Regards
