Three possible reasons. 1) The bulb is faulty 2) The battery is "flat" i.e. it has no more charge in it or 3) There is a break in the circuit, maybe a poor connection somewhere. Corrosion on battery contacts is a common problem which could cause this symptom.

How does a torch work-circuit?

A torch is simply a circuit containing a battery, a bulb and a switch. The three components are connected in series (one after the other) to form a loop. The switch simply completes the circuit so that power flows from the battery to the bulb.
