"Read-only" means you can only read from, not write to, delete or move from. You need to change the permissions. – Nov 05 '16 at 22:17

Try this:
Open a terminal,
Press Ctrl+Alt+T
Run it:
exec sudo -i
fdisk -l
fdisk report as they are called partitions mounted in the system.
Suppose /media/shubbh/New Volume is /dev/sdc1
Continue running
umount /media/shubbh/New\ Volume
fsck -y /dev/sdc1
mkdir /media/shubbh/New\ Volume
chmod -Rf 777 /media/shubbh/New\ Volume
mount /dev/sdc1 /media/shubbh/New\ Volume
exit
And try to rename a file, delete, create a new folder, cut, paste in a volume neither by terminal
