Finally, i found the values of --country_name_index and --country_code_index with the help of QGIS Browser,

Qgis Browser

Opened the shapefile using QGis Browser and then in the "Attributes" section the following things are found. It is based on zero indexed.

--country_name_index 6

--country_name_index 5

for --longitude0 -3.7(googled it) That's it! I got the output.

Thanks everyone
