Thanks worked.

Ok. But I went into trouble. That I think needs to be fixed.

I made the above settings in the .gnus.el and probably these got saved
into my .newsrc.eld and probably did few more experiments that I don't
remember exactly what. I did it to make it work from the init file. And
Gnus wasn't starting then. Group buffer wasn't coming up. I had to
manually delete nnselect sexps to bring it back.

But after creating groups from group buffer I am loving it. Really
changed the whole experience.
