Answer 1

Perhaps you can insert value in a single sql sentence instead select + insert:

if(
   @mysql_query("     
      insert into puranibasti  
      select '', name, date, msg, image 
      from tipuranibasti where id = $id"
  ")

Answer 2

INSERT INTO target (id, name, date, msg, image)
SELECT '', name, date, msg, image FROM source
WHERE source.id = $id

This approach prevents you from having to convert sql values to php and then back from php to sql.
