We checked on the page https://indiapropertyjournal.com/ and did confirm that Yoast is outputting the following meta description:
<meta name="description" content="India Property Journal is a real estate news source of India trusted by India's top Property investors, Buyers, Sellers and tenants which shares information on commercial, residential and rental properties."/>
However, we do see that this is not the meta description that Google is indexing in a search. Whereas Google typically uses the meta description from the metadata for indexing, this is not always the case. Google will sometimes modify or ignore the meta description when it sees fit. This is not due to the plugin not functioning as expected, but rather is due to Google using another value for the meta description it indexes as it’s algorithm has concluded that there is a better version to index. We have additional information on this here: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/my-meta-descriptions-arent-showing-up-in-the-search-result-pages/. If Google is ignoring the meta description you have created for a page and creating it’s own description based off the page’s content, we would recommend creating a new meta description that reflect’s the page’s content. We have an article on how to write clean and meaningful meta description for your pages and posts by following the steps given in this guide. https://yoast.com/meta-descriptions/.
Ok but we already implemented many time but the issue still same on my all website . Now https://indiapropertyjournal.com/ is solved but now we facing the issue same on https://newshour.press. so please suggest me the better idea regarding this …It shows latest post meta description showing on my home page but my home page meta description is not showing as well as other pages also .Please tell me the permanent solution regarding this .

Hi,
On https://www.newshour.press/ we can see Yoast is showing the right meta description. See image: https://pasteboard.co/HZLXmopY.png.
We understand Google is showing a different one here. See image: https://pasteboard.co/HZLXQBa.png
We can only suggest two actions to resolve the issue:
A. Can you confirm if you use Fetch as Googlebot that the issue is resolved? This will force Google to update the index. You may need to use it several times. This guide explains more: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/fetch-as-googlebot/.
B. If not, Google has decided its meta description is the best one for the page. You will need to improve the meta description. This guide explains more about why Google has changed your meta description: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/my-meta-descriptions-arent-showing-up-in-the-search-result-pages/#ignored
