demuxer is only creating dynamic pads but not based on the contents of the
stream, but they are requested  while linking the elements . Basically,
This demux-elements provides n number of elements a different
output-streams, which means there could be three elements connected to this
demuxer srcpads.

You also need to activate the pads (when requested in >=PAUSED) before

Which exactly state of transitions makes the srcpads on element inactive ?
Do I have to make them active by "gst_pad_activate_push(pad, TRUE)" ?

Yes, I using combined return. But this gst_pad_push never returns after
pushing, Infact the data is never pushed & never received on the peer end.
It just hangs.
