Solution :

In my case it comes when i want to add view by parent to other view

View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.single, null);
LinearLayout lyt = root.findViewById(R.id.lytRoot);
lytAll.addView(lyt);  //it crashes

So to avoid the crash one must add parent view like this

View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.single, null);
LinearLayout lyt = root.findViewById(R.id.lytRoot);
lytAll.addView(root); //it works fine
I followed above steps and my issue got resolved.
