    Hi saurabh_talele,

    Did you follow these steps:

    1.New a contact and fill the "Address 1: city"(Outbound marketing -> Customers -> Contacts)

    For realtime segment

    For Outbound marketing

    Select a template or click skip, then click "Add query block" and choose "Address 1: City" attribute.

    You can also use natural language in the search bar.

    If all goes well, you can use the system administrator role to see if the entity Settings are normal (setting -> advance setting -> Customizations -> Customize the System):

    Is the Contact Entity enabled via Dataset Configuration in Settings?
