Importing TensorFlow is giving an error when running ML model

Error stack trace:

TypeError: Descriptors cannot not be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:        
 1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
 2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

Please find the below resolution:

Install a protobuf version >3.20 on the cluster. pinned the protobuf==3.20.1 on the Cluster libraries
