I would treat her and the rest of your flock with corid. You can find it at Tractor Supply and online.
I'm sure someone with more experience will be along to help. In the meantime, can you post a picture or two of the chick also.
 
But problem is that corid is not available in my province in any veterinary shop

How many chickens do you have, and is this chicken the only one that is not well?

She looks pretty healthy to me in the photo, but you are there with her and know better. In general, I just make sure my chickens have fresh, clean water and feed at all times. Chickens have a very short digestive cycle, and what they eat usually comes out the other end in a few hours. Because of this, it is very hard to poison a chicken with bad feed. I suspect she will recover on her own, but you want to be sure she is at least drinking clean water.

There are many, many, videos on YouTube on how to treat a sick chick. You might want to search YouTube for a video for treatment for the symptoms you see in your chick. I hope she gets better and will be following this thread on her progress.

Thanks for your suggestion
I have currently 12 chickens. Other 11 are fine. Only this one is not normal. I have already separate her from other chickens.

Sounds like all the others are doing fine. I guess that would rule out bad feed and water if all your other chicks are OK. Any improvements on your chick that is not doing well?

Not so far. She doesn't eat food. Only drinks water. I am giving her food forcefully for now
