Vaibhav, You may also want to investigate the shapefile_stencil.earth example (which uses the model_feature_stencil plugin). This uses a stencil buffer technique to drape vector data on the terrain. Make sure you get the absolute latest SVN though. For lines, you'll need to build in the GEOS support as well (use geos 3.1.1 on windows) to get geometry buffering.
