@deepika46 You should use the following script to cancel the flow.

var now_GR = new GlideRecord("sys_flow_context");
now_GR.addQuery("source_record", "436c8d344732211092c98021336d43aa"); //Replace with the sys_id of your RITM
now_GR.query();

while (now_GR.next()) {
sn_fd.FlowAPI.cancel(now_GR.getUniqueValue(), 'Canceling Test Flows');
} 

Make sure to replace source_record sys_id value with the sys_id of your RITM.

Please mark this answer correct and helpful if it manages to answer your question.

It is giving the following error 

 Flow cannot be cancelled as the context id: fef1a4951bb5b51033ff62cce54bcb64 doesn't exist

 The id does exist but still it is giving the error

@deepika46 Could you please check if a context for your RITM exists within sys_flow_context table.
