      Hi Yousaf ysaf ,

      Grease Pencil is not a Mode. Watch the Lesson again.

      You have a Mesh Object Selected and Meshes have those 6 Modes you see in your Screenshot. You are in Edit Mode.

      Switch to Object Mode. You can then Delete the Sphere Object (if you want) and SHIFT+A > Add > Grease Pencil > Stroke (or Blank, or Monkey).

      Hi Yousaf! If you begin by opening a new 2D Animation preset, your Grease Pencil object is already there, you're in draw mode, and ready to work.

      CTRL-TAB will allow you to toggle between modes such as draw, edit, object, etc. I hope this helps!

      Hi paul and martin thanks for replying 
      actually The mistake I did was
      I didn't added a grease pencil in object mode and after posting this message I rewatched the lesson and understood 😅
      Thank you
