Hi Kaushal,

Without having delved too much into check_http, my immediate response 
would be use a command-line very similar to what you've got but with the 
word "Disconnected" - this will return an OK state to Nagios when the 
webpage you're checking returns the string Disconnected.

You could then use the negate plugin to reverse that OK to a CRITICAL.  
If the string is NOT present in the webpage, check_http will return 
CRITICAL which negate will turn into an OK for Nagios.

There may be something already in check_http that does this however, so 
I'd advise you to have a look in-case.
