Shraddha, I've just followed the three steps above and things just worked
for me:

{
    "QMP": {
        "version": {
            "qemu": {
                "micro": 50, 
                "minor": 3, 
                "major": 1
            }, 
            "package": ""
        }, 
        "capabilities": [
        ]
    }
}
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
{
    "return": {
    }
}
{ "execute": "hello-world" }
{
    "return": {
    }
}

Patch below. There must something wrong with your tree. What's the qemu
version you're using?
