Hello Sir, 

     I am Using Windows 10 OS... And thankyou so much for your response sir...

Actually I resolve the Issue... The problem was with gecko driver version... 

I used driver with latest one with 64 bit and my firefox is also latest one... Hence it driver with browser matches perfectly and it worked...
