I believe that this phrase comes from military (AmE) slang and it means "I understand you" or "I got it".
That was my understanding. However, that seems an inappropriate response as used without anything else in post #7, so I wondered if abhishiek though it meant something else.
 
*** NOT A TEACHER ***

The terrorists bombed the hotel where the intelligence agents were staying.

Can I rephrase the sentence like this?

Yes.

I meant I understand your Instructions and would follow them.
 
I have another doubt ,what is wrong with sentence like "They are understanding the lesson", I am told it's wrong so was confused similarly with "I am loving that girl".

So much for "Roger that". PLEASE look at your comma usage in post #24 that you just wrote.

NOT A TEACHER

It's quite colloquial to say the least. I wouldn't use it with the verb "understand", but I think that "I'm loving" is all right when used informally.

I am improving, hopefully won't repeat it.
 
The original question has been answered, so I am closing this thread. If you wish to follow up your questions about loving and understanding, abhishiek,please start a new thread. We keep to one topic in each thread in order to avoid confusion.

In any future threads, please remember: Your thread title should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.
