Above is my file.It doesn't have any extension. I want to plot column 1 vs column 3. Gnu-plot is just plotting a straight line. Please help. Column 1 is index and column 3 is a binary entry.

At which value is the straight line? That should get you to the problem: the time data contains a white space, so that the time data is treated as two columns. You need to plot column 4 vs. column 1:

plot 'file' using 1:4 with lines

But the line is drawn only, if you don't have blank lines between every entry.
