Don’t know how but I just solved it, by deleting the node_modules folder of my project and then re-running the project, it worked perfectly fine. Lastly thank you all for your involvement.

I have resolved this with simple solution

just do rm -rf node_modules then do yarn install after that it will work

For this to work, you need to delete the “node_modules” folder and the android/.gradle file, and finally, you need to do a “npm i” and a ./gradlew clean in the android folder.

Deleting “.gradle” and “node_modules” folders worked for me. Thanks to all 👍👍👍
