    How have you mounted the partition? What is the error message?
    You probably have to mount the partition with read/write access and give the user the right to write in the disk.
    Code:
    sudo mount -o remount,rw /partition/identifier /mount/point

    This is the output i got after running the command

    mount: /mount/point: mount point does not exist.

    Replace "/partition/identifier" with the partition identifier (see your gparted output: /dev/sdb1) and "/mount/point" with your desired mount point. (see your gparted output: /media/moeezh... )
