Rohan,
Like Charlie said, check the relay under the rear seat. Bridge the two yellow wires that are for the fuel pump (bypass the relay) and see if the pump works. That could be one problem. The other could be the main relay that sits under the pressure sensor (there are two relays there, you should check the one towards the front). My fuel pump wasn't working and the the relay in the engine compartment was faulty.

You have an injected CSL, not?In any electrical dysfunction, first check the fuse.
Seems to me there may be a relay for the fuel pump circuit - can you find it, is it getting power when it should?
Can you run a jumper line to the pump, exclusive of the vehicle wiring system, and get it to run? If so, then your pump's okay, the problem lies elsewhere. Please be careful with live electrical lines near fuel sources....
I don't believe (don't want to believe) that the fuel pump is kaput unless you did something to it.
HTH
