Hi Jayaramu,

Greetings to you!

If you only use the apostrophe ' it will close out of the section you are in. You need to use \' to quote the value you are using. It's called "escaping" the single quotes. 
 
String s = 'SELECT Account.Name,Contact.Name,Subject,RecordType.Name,Issue_Summary__c FROM Case where Status = \'Closed\'';

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

Thanks and Regards,
Khan Anas
