You should be using :bd to close the buffer. :q is used to close
windows. ":help windows-intro" gives a basic rundown of the differences
between buffers and windows.

This is a documented problem with MiniBufExpl and there is a variable
you can let to attempt to fix this. If you read the notes at the top of
MiniBufExpl.vim, you should find the information you need. You may find
bufexplorer.vim to be less intrusive and easier to use. That's what I
switched to after getting frustrated with MiniBufExpl.vim.

Thanks for reply,
I downloaded Bufexplorer.vim and tried using it.
Everytime I use the as described in document "\be" or "\bs" I get the
error
"E488: Trailing characters"
Is there anything else I need to add in .vimrc regarding this plugin, though
nothing as such is mentioned in the document.
Also, when I open another file in the window with command ":e <file2>" it
does open the file but buffer doesn't appear at all(this was happening in
MiniBufferexplorer), I want the buffer to appear as soon as there is second
file is opened in window.

Jagpreet
