Thanks for your message. Are you working on the labs in the PortSwigger Web Security Academy? Do you have Burp Suite Community installed on your own machine or was it installed on a machine that internshala had provided? If Burp is installed on a machine provided by internshala you may need to contact them for assistance.

Thanks for the update. Can you send a screenshot of your settings under Proxy -> Options -> Proxy Listener to support@portswigger.net, please? Do you see this error when you start Burp or when you browse to the site you are testing? Do you see this error with all sites or just this one?
