      Hello Arzoo, please check your settings here Title and Meta > Post Type in SEO by Yoast. Set Meta Robots unchecked for posts, pages and media. The same settings applies for category and tags also under Taxonomies. (If you want to index post pages, categories and tags also keep Meta Robot unchecked or checked if you do no want to index it.)
