Hello Bijendrameel,
Thanks for reaching out regarding your sitemap. I have addressed your concerns below:
Sitemap N/A
First, https://www.meelbijendra.com/why-is-the-stock-market-falling-so-sharply-today/ does not seem to be a web story but a post. As such, you can find it listed in the post sitemap
You may consider resubmitting the sitemap. Please ensure to only submit the /sitemap_index.xml/
URL is not on Google
The screenshot shows that the Google Search Console reports https://www.meelbijendra.com/why-is-the-stock-market-falling-so-sharply-today/ is not on Google. I performed a site search and the URL is on Google. See screenshot.
In the page source, the meta tag is <meta name='robots' content='<strong>index, follow</strong>, max-image-preview:large, max-snippet:-1, max-video-preview:-1' />. Nothing in the robots.txt is blocking indexing.
So, you may consider requesting reindexing for that post or resubmitting the sitemap index, first.
Hi
As I give you a URL of my site ” https://www.meelbijendra.com/web-stories/4-best-small-cap-stocks-to-invest-in-2022/ ” this is the index in google But on inspecting in the search console, it is written, “Indexed, not submitted in sitemap”.

So it has requested manual indexing, then it is indexed but it is not happening from the sitemap.
According to me, there is no block even in “robots.txt” and once you can also check that there is no issue in robots.txt.
Only ” https://www.meelbijendra.com/sitemap_index.xml ” is submitted in the sitemap and not the rest you can see in this screenshot: https://pasteboard.co/UPvEuusoTajN.png
The “Last read” time in the sitemap is also updated whenever a new post is published, but when inspecting the URL in Google Search Console, it says “Sitemap: N/A”.
As ” https://www.meelbijendra.com/why-is-the-stock-market-falling-so-sharply-today ” this post index is showing ” site:https://www.meelbijendra.com/why-is-the-stock-market-falling-so-sharply-today ” but it is not showing in google search console as you can see in the screenshot

Indexed, not submitted in sitemap
Indexed, not submitted in sitemap means Google discovered and indexed the relevant URL through a different source instead of the sitemap you have submitted already. We say that it’s completely fine as long as the relevant page is indexed; it doesn’t matter what the source was to discover the relevant URL for Google.
Please note that it might take time for Google to crawl your website. Also, you can force Google to crawl the URL again via the Inspect your URL tool in Google Search Console.
Indeed, it appears this URL https://www.meelbijendra.com/why-is-the-stock-market-falling-so-sharply-today is indexed and appears in search results however, your Google Search Console is showing this URL is not in Google. This means it’s showing a false positive report.
It can take some time before Google can report on the crawled URLs after you re-submit your sitemap. Google Search Console reports are not real-time.
This URL has been published for a long time, it is also indexed in Google but when I inspect the URL in Search Console it shows “Sitemap: N/A”

Indeed, the URL is in Google https://prnt.sc/24sae1a, we are not sure why Google Search Console is giving a false result. This issue is not something related to the Yoast SEO plugin. You can either ignore it considering a false-positive message or contact Google support for further assistance.
