Dear Vipul,

You have muscle spasms.
To free them, you need to re-assert control of the involved muscles through movements that contract them.
If you wish, I can make a recommendation of a program with instructions, or you can do the somatic exercise at the following URL:

That may be sufficient for you to free yourself.
