E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

```
to fix this erros ```sources.list``` updated several time and same errors was there all the 
time.
After checking the architecture of system with command ```dpkg --print-architecture```,
terminal return ```amd64```
The real error is my system is #amd64 and those updators are looking for package in #arm64,This was casing 
issue in updating repositories with crossed architecture 

#Solution :
The soltion for this error is to remove arm64 architecture support with below command
```sudo dpkg --remove-architecture arm64```

System works fine and upto date updated and upgraded.
