guest: Is investing in Government bonds is good idea & how much locking period is there for the same & minimum amount.

You need to choose the bond based on how long you are willing to keep it locked in for. As such I would suggest a short duration debt fund like ICICI as the fund manager will decide which stocks to buy etc.
