 * Hello Rajathballal,
 * Temporary deactivate all plugins and switch to a default WordPress theme like
   Twenty, Twenty-One. Then, try updating the post again. If the error goes away,
   it means there may be a conflict with one of your plugins or your theme. Reactivate
   them one by one to identify the problematic one. I think that might help.
