    Hi Khushal

    Your child-theme functions.php should contain this content at a minimum.

    <?php
// Exit if accessed directly
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;
// BEGIN ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION
// Do not modify or remove comment markers above or below:
        
if ( !function_exists( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' ) ):
    function chld_thm_cfg_parent_css() {
        wp_enqueue_style( 'chld_thm_cfg_parent', trailingslashit( get_template_directory_uri() ) . 'style.css' );
    }
endif;
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'chld_thm_cfg_parent_css' );
// END ENQUEUE PARENT ACTION
?>

    You should then be able to activate your child-theme.
