When I try to install Ubuntu via bootable USB drive, it displays at the boot time, no operating system detected. And after that I tried to extract ISO image file of Ubuntu but that too didn't work saying "cannot download metalink and therefore the iso" even if I place ISO and Wubi in same folder.

1The iso should not be extracted but burned to a DVD. And, are you sure you made a bootable USB drive? How? Use Unetbootin. – To Do Aug 02 '14 at 08:46

You can create USB Boot disk in either Startup Disk Creator or Unetbootin:
- Startup Disk Creator
Note: Startup Disk Creator is included to Ubuntu, so you need either run Ubuntu (on other computer) or boot any machine from USB or CD/DVD Live.
Unetbootin exists for Linux, Windows, Mac
