Hi ,
By Default, the approval will have the read-permissions to the approval table, Please use the below method to debug the ACL.
ServiceNow Debug ACL:
To debug ACL navigate as mentioned below:
System Security -> Debugging -> Debug Security Rules -->Impersonate the user to whom you need to debug permission and navigate to the form.
Check the Approval record read acl to see which ACL is causing the issue.
To stop debug acl in ServiceNow:

Hi Eshwitha,
I think the user don't have sufficient privileges to view the approval record. Try opening the record with Admin roles and see whether approval record is showing or not.
