    Solved for it.!

     

    I have re-installed .NET framework and restarted the server and tried creating the data source and this time the error changed and it was saying something in the lines of there is an extra DbProviderFactories and from a quick web search I found this link that we need to edit the machine.config file to remove the extra entry of DbProviderFactories and I did the same and restarted the server and it worked like charm.

    Hope this helps anyone who faces similar issues.
