Did you try with curl?
Allthough i would expect the same behaviour.

Code:
curl -o latest.tar.gz https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz

Either way, you can pass the (your) proxy server (information).
Code:
+ ~ $ wget --help |grep proxy
       --no-proxy                explicitly turn off proxy.
       --proxy-user=USER       set USER as proxy username.
       --proxy-password=PASS   set PASS as proxy password.

Hope this helps

Thank you for kind help. curl didn't work either as you said.

Therefore I added the proxy settings to the wget configuration file. Then it worked but stopped saying certificate error. Therefore I did --no-check-certificate. Then it worked.

Any idea what was the wrong? Also ping to google did not worked too.

CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3) 				     curl_easy_setopt options					   CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO - path to proxy Certificate Authority (CA) bundle SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO, char *path); DESCRIPTION
This option is for connecting to a HTTPS proxy, not a HTTPS server. Pass a char * to a zero terminated string naming a file holding one or more certificates to verify the HTTPS proxy with. If CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) is zero and you avoid verifying the server's certificate, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3) need not even indicate an accessible file. This option is by default set to the system path where libcurl's cacert bundle is assumed to be stored, as established at build time. If curl is built against the NSS SSL library, the NSS PEM PKCS#11 module (libnsspem.so) needs to be available for this option to work prop- erly. (iOS and macOS only) If curl is built against Secure Transport, then this option is supported for backward compatibility with other SSL engines, but it should not be set. If the option is not set, then curl will use the certificates in the system and user Keychain to verify the peer, which is the preferred method of verifying the peer's certificate chain. The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. DEFAULT
Built-in system specific PROTOCOLS
Used with HTTPS proxy EXAMPLE
TODO AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.52.0 For TLS backends that don't support certificate files, the CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3) option is ignored. Refer to https://curl.haxx.se/docs/ssl-compared.html RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space. SEE ALSO
CURLOPT_PROXY_CAPATH(3), CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3), CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3), CURLOPT_CAPATH(3), CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3), CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3), libcurl 7.54.0 December 21, 2016 CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)
