I downloaded the drivers you mentioned and installed them reboot the system but problem still persists
If i try update driver and search automatically for updated driver it says
Windows found the drivers for your device but error occured while attempting to install them
Driver mentioned is
Realtek RTL8723BE 802.11 bgn Wi-fi adapter
I tried uninstalling that driver and downloaded it from hp site and installed it again but still problem persists
Please help me out this has become a big headache

Yes, it is a big headache.
The driver should have installed automatically and your other efforts to get it to install should have worked too.
So the only suggestion I can offer would be to reinstall W10 and try those drivers again first thing.

Let me start with how the problem came into picture
My wifi was getting disconnected automatically so i thought it was a problem with deiver so i uninstalled the wifi driver and again reinstalled it and afterwards wifi was working fine
After few days again same problem started so i again uninstalled the driver and try to install it but this time it didnt install so i used the network reset option in network settings and system restarted but still driver wasnt installed
And when i opened device manager it showed yellow exclamation mark in network controller under unknown devices
Then i tried unistalling and reinstalling the driver but it is not getting installed it says windows found the driver but can not install at the time and yellow mark persits
