It sounds like an issue with your urdf. Can you share more information? Maybe your urdf or an image showing all your joints?

Have you gone through the urdf tutorials to get a basic two-wheeled robot working in simulation?

Some tutorials are at: http://wiki.ros.org/urdf/Tutorials

Yes. I have actually made a much simpler robot model and successfully did the simulation in gazebo. But for this robot I'm not able to find what's causing this problem. Is it with the co ordinates of links and joints or is it with the inertial parameters. Please help!

So why do you not add features one step at a time to your working model, and verify that it still works at each step? This will hugely reduce the places in the urdf where your model might be broken.
