Thanks. Checked. The color for 'selected' text is set to 'white' and the 
'background' for selected text is set to grey. Somehow GTK apps are not 
taking 'background' color.

Also in Nautilus, when I select any item it is not highlighted, same 
problem there as well. Interesting no such problem if I use KDE under 
Fedora.
