Now you have updated the screenshot I see your issue now.
Your domain is pointing to the wrong name servers. You need to update the glue records for the domain.
The name servers in your Route53 zone do not match the name servers defined on your domain. Update the name servers via your registrar to match. This should resolve it.
These things try us when using new technologies as with any product.
I don’t recognise the dns gui in your screen shot, where’s that from? The dns records need to go into route 53
However, I think I’ve see where you have gone wrong.
When you created the records in route53 you have created the cnames, etc with the domain name Twice.
In your screenshot you have _amazonses.. webstechnologys.com.webstechnologys.com
When creating records in route53 the domain name is appended by default.
It may be when you’re clicking the copy button it’s copying the whole host name, however you only need the name before the first dot.
Try and manually create a cname of _amazonses in your route53 domain.
Don’t create it as _amazonses.webstechnologys.com
Invalid host issue error even follow your instructions
Exact instructions here. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/resource-record-sets-creating.html
I assume you are doing a this in route53?
Make sure you have no spaces too
Made new answer now you have added screen shot of your zone. Your name servers are incorrect.

please provide steps in written here so I can do it
please anyone help me to resolve this issue, I have already losted a lot, my entire 2 week business is down due to email is not setup due to nameservers
The 4 NS records in your zone need to be defined on the domain record via your domain registrar. Every time you recreate the zone you have different NS records. It looks like you may have changed them already.
In your screen shot take those name server records and update the name servers are your registrar.
The name servers here need to match the name servers in your zone https://www.whois.com/whois/webstechnologys.com
Here’s the instructions for your registrar https://www.name.com/support/articles/205934457-registering-custom-nameservers
You must have a different zone setup some where because the a record for your website is still resolvable. Your new zone in your screen shot doesn’t have your webserver record BTW
