I have tried to run apt-get -f install but no success. I have also tried to install these dependent packages as 

apt-get install libmysqlclient16 libpython2.6 libzip1 python-paramiko python-pysqlite2

How to fix this ?

Enable all the repos and do an apt-get update – Tachyons Feb 18 at 7:48
So why do you use dpkg -i with 1 and apt-get with the others? Why not dpkg -i the dependencies too? – Rinzwind Feb 18 at 8:00

Have you tried with gdebi? I've successfully installed it with the following: 

sudo apt-get install gdebi-core
sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/mysql-workbench-gpl-5.2.47-1ubu1204-amd64.deb

Unlike apt, gdebi able to correctly resolve the dependencies.
