I get this error 
Failed object initialization (ISupportInitialize.EndInit). 
Triggers collection members must be of type EventTrigger.  
Error at object '4_T' in markup file
What am I doing wrong plz help.
Abe is correct and explains the limitations well. One thing you might want to consider is:
Instead of having two border styles, and trying to pick between them based on a trigger...
Use a single style on your border, this style's setters represent your 'normal' look.
This style also contains your DataTrigger, and your DataTrigger has a collection of setters which essentially represents your second style (which have higher priority than the standard setters when this trigger evaluates to true!
Edit:
Something like this -
<Style TargetType="Border" x:Key="BorderStyle">
    <!-- These setters are the same as your normal style when none of your triggers are true -->
    <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Black" />
    <Style.Triggers>
        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Path=CurrentStatus}" Value="0">
            <!-- These setters are the same as your ListBoxItemBorder style -->
            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Green" />
        </DataTrigger>
        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Path=CurrentStatus}" Value="200">
            <!-- These setters are the same as your ListBoxItemBorderInactive style -->
            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Gray" />
        </DataTrigger>
    </Style.Triggers>
</Style>
Unfortunately, only EventTriggers can be applied directly to elements. If you want to use a Trigger or DataTrigger, they have to be in a Style, ControlTemplate, or DataTemplate.  
From the resource names, it looks like this is a Border inside a ListBoxItem ControlTemplate.  You could easily move the triggers into the template's triggers collection.
 <Border Width="130" Height="100" Grid.Row="1">
        <ListBox x:Name="lstItems" ItemsSource="{Binding TestItems}">
        </ListBox>
        <tg:TriggerExtensions.Triggers>
            <tg:TriggerCollections>
                <tg:DataTriggerInfo Binding="{Binding CurrentStatus}" Value="0">
                    <tg:DataTriggerInfo.Setters>
                        <tg:SetterInfo ElementName="lstItems" Property="Style" Value="{StaticResource ListBoxRed}"/>
                    </tg:DataTriggerInfo.Setters>
                </tg:DataTriggerInfo>
                <tg:DataTriggerInfo Binding="{Binding CurrentStatus}" Value="0" IsInvert="True">
                    <tg:DataTriggerInfo.Setters>
                        <tg:SetterInfo ElementName="lstItems" Property="Style" Value="{StaticResource ListBoxBlue}"/>
                    </tg:DataTriggerInfo.Setters>
                </tg:DataTriggerInfo>
            </tg:TriggerCollections>
        </tg:TriggerExtensions.Triggers>
    </Border>
