friends Jennis 's answer helps me for finding my solutions and answer is :

1) For Retweet and Favorite

This is a class method for sending request , you have to pass different URL's for retweet and Favorite.

    + (void)makeRequestsWithURL: (NSURL *)url {
    // Create an account store object.
    ACAccountStore *accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];

    // Create an account type that ensures Twitter accounts are retrieved.
    ACAccountType *accountType = [accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierTwitter];

    // Request access from the user to use their Twitter accounts.
    [accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType withCompletionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
        if(granted) {
            // Get the list of Twitter accounts.
            NSArray *accountsArray = [accountStore accountsWithAccountType:accountType];

            // For the sake of brevity, we'll assume there is only one Twitter account present.
            // You would ideally ask the user which account they want to tweet from, if there is more than one Twitter account present.
            if ([accountsArray count] > 0) {
                // Grab the initial Twitter account to tweet from.
                ACAccount *twitterAccount = [accountsArray objectAtIndex:0];


                // Create a request, which in this example, posts a tweet to the user's timeline.
                // This example uses version 1 of the Twitter API.
                // This may need to be changed to whichever version is currently appropriate.
                TWRequest *postRequest = [[TWRequest alloc] initWithURL:url parameters:nil requestMethod:TWRequestMethodPOST];

                // Set the account used to post the tweet.
                [postRequest setAccount:twitterAccount];

                // Perform the request created above and create a handler block to handle the response.
                [postRequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
                    NSString *output = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"HTTP response status: %i", [urlResponse statusCode]];
                    iOS5Twitter *twitter5 = [[iOS5Twitter alloc] init];
                    [twitter5 performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(displayText:) withObject:output waitUntilDone:NO];
                    [twitter5 release];                }];
            }
        }

    }];

}

URL for Retweet :
https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/retweet/id_str.json.xml
URL for Favorite:
https://api.twitter.com/1/favorites/create/id_str.json
https://api.twitter.com/1/favorites/destroy/id_str.json

2) Code for Reply

       + (void)makeRequestForReplyWithSelectedFeed:(NSString *)status inReply2:(NSString *)updateID{
    // Create an account store object.
    ACAccountStore *accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];

    // Create an account type that ensures Twitter accounts are retrieved.
    ACAccountType *accountType = [accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierTwitter];



    NSString *trimmedText = status;
    if ([trimmedText length] > 140.0) {
        trimmedText = [trimmedText substringToIndex:140];
    }

    NSMutableDictionary *params = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithCapacity:0];
    [params setObject:trimmedText forKey:@"status"];
    if (updateID > 0) {
        [params setObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", updateID] forKey:@"in_reply_to_status_id"];
    }

    // Request access from the user to use their Twitter accounts.
    [accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType withCompletionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
        if(granted) {
            // Get the list of Twitter accounts.
            NSArray *accountsArray = [accountStore accountsWithAccountType:accountType];

            // For the sake of brevity, we'll assume there is only one Twitter account present.
            // You would ideally ask the user which account they want to tweet from, if there is more than one Twitter account present.
            if ([accountsArray count] > 0) {
                // Grab the initial Twitter account to tweet from.
                ACAccount *twitterAccount = [accountsArray objectAtIndex:0];


                // Create a request, which in this example, posts a tweet to the user's timeline.
                // This example uses version 1 of the Twitter API.
                // This may need to be changed to whichever version is currently appropriate.
                   TWRequest *postRequest = [[TWRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json"] parameters:params requestMethod:TWRequestMethodPOST];

                // Set the account used to post the tweet.
                [postRequest setAccount:twitterAccount];

                // Perform the request created above and create a handler block to handle the response.
                [postRequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
                    NSString *output = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"HTTP response status: %i", [urlResponse statusCode]];
                    iOS5Twitter *twitter5 = [[iOS5Twitter alloc] init];
                    [twitter5 performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(displayText:) withObject:output waitUntilDone:NO];
                    [twitter5 release];                }];
            }
        }
    }];
}

method Call :

[iOS5Twitter makeRequestForReplyWithSelectedFeed:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", tweetMessage.text ]inReply2:[ NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",selectedFeed.id_str]];

I have created a class iOS5Twitter and implement a class method , if you want to do it in your controller , kindly replace delegate by self
