Raja, I am not sure if your understanding on how templates work is correct.
You do not need to download a template to the primary storage. CS will do that as required. Also, CS will clean-up templates from primary if no associated VMs are running. This is expected behavior. The state of the template that you see in the UI refers to the status of the template on secondary storage. The exception you are getting while launching the VM seems to be a separate issue. You need to share more details and logs (use pastebin or similar).
