Hi Sankar,
Others have already suggested the correct way to do this (Hrishikesh's
suggestion being the most clear, imho). However, looking at the config file you
pasted, I wonder if the problem was simply a typo:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Is this really uncommented in your config too ? The correct
entry seems to be below ....

...however, since the empty root line comes first, that's the one that is
possibly being picked. You can easily tell whether this is the case by looking
at the label shown in the grub menu at boot.
HTH,
