I would post the report of what I did though with the CAVEAT -> This is specific to my issue, and no SO answer could help me but what Juliank wrote.
-> Initially, my /boot/efi was mounted on the only partition available on my disk. So, i created a new Fat32 partition on `/dev/nvme0n1` using `gparted`.
-> Then, I formated the new partition with FAT32 filesystem
`
-> Then mounted the EFI partition which already existed btw on `dev/nvme0n1p1` to the new partition `dev/nvme0n1p2`
-> I updated the `/etc/fstab` with the new location of `/boot/efi` and commented out the old value
-> I reinstalled grub and did a reboot.
----
During reboot, I got this error - `x86/cpu: SGX disable by BIOS.`
I fixed this by going into the BiOs settings and switched the option for Intel SGX to Enable, and the rest was history.
Thanks once again @juliank. I do not regret trying out ubuntu
