Finally, I found a flasher-3.0 executable which did the trick. Thank you, Vinod

But, I could not find a .deb file for rootsh/becomeroot. I could not find the flasher.exe also for N770 to enable root. Please help. I also tried installing powerlaunch. But failed to find the dependencies for it - libglade2. Is there any single repository from which I can download the required .deb files for N770.

Not sure what is the scenario you want to use it for. For low level access you can use kernel input subsystem directly see e.g. evkey.c [1] and its usage in bootmenu.sh [2]. Just beware that different devices have different device names and key events still go to the rest of the system. For playing nice with the system using powerlaunch [3] is indeed better. I am not aware of 770 version (the author [4] has/had N800) but the source is here [4]. Maybe it could build fine at least in OS2007 hacker edition.
