Thank you for your support. Since there is no direct way to approach this , i was wondering MS Fabric has though about this issue and if they have in their roadmap to resolve it? The solution given is kin dof a "hot fix" but more solid approach is required here. i will accept the solution and thanks again for prompt reply.

Microsoft Fabric Warehouse does not support the direct import of .bak files.
One alternative is to create .bacpac file --> import it to Fabric SQL DB ( bacpac file are supported) --> copy to WH
