Hi Ashfaq,
You may have done some change in query editor, right? Text type can't be changed to date type directly so the error happens, as a workaround, you can create a custom column to convert text to date in query editor using function as below than use the custom column instead of original column in your visual:
Date.FromText(date as nullable text, optional culture as nullable text) as nullable date

Hi @Ashfaq
It looks like an issue with data types mismatch. If you share your file it would be much easier for people to help
