Thanks Duncan for your reply. This could definitely be an answer of my query 
however I wanted something else. What I want is to draw 2 lines over the 
surface which pass through x=3,4

That's even more ambiguous than your original request, so I won't try to code it. The general solution to draw a line segment is to work out end points (x1,y1,z1) and (x2,y2,z2), and then call

segments3d(c(x1,x2), c(y1,y2), c(z1, z2), ...)

where the ... specifies things like the colour, etc.

Any better idea? Thanks,

Dear folks, I have created a plot on RGL device :
  x = 1:6
y = seq(-12, 5, by=1)
z = matrix(0, length(y), length(x))
z[13,3] = 1; z[13,4] = 1.011765
surface3d(x, y, t(z), col=rainbow(1000))
grid3d(c("x-", "y-", "z"))
  Now I want to draw 2 lines along x=3 & x=4, over the surface (with different 
colour). Could somebody help me how to draw that?

x=3 and x=4 specify planes, not lines, so you'll need to give more information 
to choose lines.  Here's one possibility:

save <- par3d(ignoreExtent=TRUE)
segments3d(c(3,3,4,4), c(min(y), max(y), min(y), max(y)), c(max(z), max(z), max(z), 
max(z)), col="red")
par3d(save)
