@Bharathi
you can try the (yet inofficial) QtSystems module

@Bharathi Also there are several other ways:

libusb. Check if you can find some Qt wrapper for it.
KDE Solid library
UDisks: Since you are using Ubuntu there is probably udisks daemon running in the background. It exposes a nice Dbus Interface to which your Qt application can connect and wait for events.
