This is a FAQ Yogesh, please read the Fedora Installation documentation 
at the Fedora site and www.fedorafaq.org.

Having said that, you need to run MD5SUM against the images BEFORE 
burning them to disc to check for download errors. If they pass with the 
correct checksum numbers (available from said location), AND ONLY THEN, 
you can burn them to disc. Try to burn at slower speeds if the problem 
re-occurs.

Ed.
