Hi Nagachaitra N,
I guess it means you have managed to install the "Processing Saga 
NextGen Provider" plugin from 
https://github.com/agiudiceandrea/qgis-processing-saga-nextgen/releases/download/1.1.0/processing_saga_nextgen-1.1.0.zip

Is it right?

If so, please firstly confirm that you have actually fixed the "issue 
with installing SAGA plugin in QGIS 3.44 version software".

If you have now an issues using a SAGA-GIS processing tool, I suggest 
you to try if the issue occurs also directly using the SAGA-GIS 
application and tools, instead of the corresponding SAGA-GIS processing 
algorithm in QGIS.

If it does, then you need to correctly understand if the workflow, the 
parameters and the input file are correctly chosen and if your expected 
results are correctly expected, also reading the SAGA-GIS tool manual. 
Having ascertained this, then the issue may be due to a bug in the 
SAGA-GIS tool itself and should be reported to the SAGA-GIS developers.

If the issue doesn't occur directly using SAGA-GIS, but only using the 
corresponding SAGA-GIS processing algorithm in QGIS, or if you are not 
able to directly using SAGA-GIS, then I suggest you to send a new 
message with a proper subject to the mailing list, providing all the 
details needed to correctly understand the issue, like the details about 
the layers involved, the processing algorithm and the parameters used. 
Providing a link to download the input layer file, if possible, would be 
also useful.

Regards.

Andrea
