​Actually It doesn't broke anywhere, instead It runs successfully. On debugging I found that it runs the subprocess.Popen() utility but it doesn't run internally the pg_dump utitliy. On running the same command on windows cmd prompt it works. Then on setting parameters close_fds=False and cmd_shell=True, It works. I ran backup in Google Chrome.
