@NeethuB ,

In this case that means the roles have been granted via some parent relationship (such as a group or another role) and you cannot simply delete them from the user record, you must first remove the parent assignment (e.g., the group or role that granted them)........If you cannot identify the parent relationship, another approach is to go into the table sys_user_has_role filter for that user, export the records, edit the XML to change <inherited>true</inherited> to <inherited>false</inherited>, import back and then delete the record.....Before doing any direct manipulation of data you should check whether you’re working on a production or non production instance and ensure you have a backup, because making changes to inherited role records can have broader effects on permissions and audit compliance......
