Did you check the opening of the mouse, where the sensors are located? If there is lint or dust inside, the mouse pointer will get stuck.

If this is not the case, try to unpair the mouse by removing it from the list of Bluetooth devices on your Mac and pair it again after that.

Thanks for your reply,

yes I cleaned the sensors, I repaired to other devices also (macbook and windows) still the problem same, but when I use white sheet trackpad, it works better on it, but still doesn’t work smooth and perfectly

I'm using a black mousepad and my Apple Mouse 2 has no issue, unless my cat sat on it and I have to remove fine hair from the surface.
