It's not the 'correct charger'. You may be using a charger designed to provide the same power through an equivalent connection, but clearly that charger is doing a bad job of it. The MagSafe chargers for Macs are proprietary to Apple. 3rd party chargers that connect to the MagSafe port are fake, Apple does not license the connector.
The correct charger is the one that Apple makes for your Mac. Buy that one.

Oops, missed the "MagSafe 2" part. Use an Apple charger. Your 3rd party charger is frying the port.
The solution is to use the correct power adapter for your Mac: Identify your Mac power adapter - Apple Support

Bro is this a big issue or should I buy a new orginal charger and use it?
You stated, "My macbook port is burnt already just repaired my battery and burnt port with new replacement and again burnt!" I suppose it depends on what you consider a big issue. Personally, I'd consider damaging my computer twice in the same way and running the risk of causing an electrical fire that could burn down my home a big issue. Especially when the solution is an $80 item. But that's me, what you do is your decision.

The solution is to NOT use a 3rd party charger with the MagSafe port on your Mac. If you must use a 3rd party charger, connect via a USB-C/Thunderbolt port on your Mac.
This is a user-to-user forum. You should contact Apple directly:

Meanwhile, leave the computer off and don't plug it in.
