Duplicate meta descriptions multiple tag errors reported by Bing Webmaster on my wordpress site

I have observed high-severity error There are multiple descriptions on the page reported in the Bing Webmaster tool under the Top Insights section for almost all my WordPress site pages and the
Recommended action:
Remove redundant tags from the page source, so that only one tag exists.
As a best practice, there should only be a single meta description per page, contained in the section of the page source.
Later I observed that one meta description code is already built on my Q&A website (example.com) and one is generated on each page by the Yoast Premium plugin installed on my WordPress site causing duplicate meta description multiple tags on each page of the website.

How can I resolve this error?

    I have disabled the meta-description output generated by Yoast as follows:

    • Login to the WordPress site admin
    • Accessed Yoast SEO -> Settings -> Content Types -> Questions and blanked out the text inside the meta description content box and Save Changes.
    • You can follow this to change this on other pages like Posts, Pages, Asked questions, categories, tags, etc whatever pages you have.
    • This will remove the meta description output generated by Yoast premium plugin and you will be left with only one meta description tag on your website pages. but in case your theme does not generate a meta description tag then please allow Yoast output to generate one meta description tag for your pages.
