I am developing a tool with keyword driven testing for Mobile Applications. Is there any way to use the Selenium for Mobile testing without using Appium or any other tool in between ?
Also, apart from multiple platform support what is the difference in using selenium and robotium for Android application testing.

Appium is just a tool for automating mobile apps, and Appium is just a wrapper for Selenium.
The answer is "Yes", there is a way you can use just Selenium. One thing you can do, is at the beginning of all your tests, you could resize the browser to phone sizes, so responsive sites will change to the mobile version.

Selenium tests web browsers. That's it. Robotium is a full-fledged framework for automating Native apps. Selenium can't interact with apps unless they are web apps.
