I used the "tranparent" option but it changed the daily graph only. Rest of
the 3 graphs (weekly, monthly, yearly) are still unchanged. Any idea why is
that so & how it would be solved ??

Try read the reference
(http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/reference.html).

The background on the pictures can't be changed BUT the pictures can be
transparent:

Options[ezwf]: growright, bits, transparent


Then to the solution. You can change the background on the html file.

With the Background tag you can configure the background colour of the
generated HTML page.
Example:

 Background[ezwf]: #a0a0a0a


Using 1 minutes searching the reference guide to mrtg !
