Hi sunnysthakur...

Please let me know i can start working in this as i am new to programming.

WHAT! New to programming with your profession?

What do you intend to develop for the broad Linux platform?

If it is kernel stuff you need some serious knowledge of how things work.
Also GUI development is equally mind boggling.

If you are new to programming as you say then a minimum knowledge
of ANSI C is a must, C++ much more useful...

A very important part of any development is documentation. So you could
give back to the system that way too.

How about beta testing new code releases to _destruction_...

The list is almost endless...

Or be like me, pick a niche and learn programming to suit that niche and
issue your code under one of the GPL(ish) style licences and/or Public Domain...

Enjoy the choice in giving back...
