Solution :

I tried below approach and that worked for me :

import matplotlib 
matplotlib.use("Agg") 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

This really worked for me

OR

Please remove below line of code :

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

 

Please add below line of code :

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use("Agg")
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

The main reason behind such a behavior is that if you are running it on the servers witch do not have the gui support or non interactive mode. And if you try to run same code on the jupyter notebook, it will work fine.
