Welcome to the forum.

I don't know anything about Hindi but can I suggest that you search Help with hyphen as hyphenation: manual/automatic discusses hyphenation.

Tools > Options > Language Settings > Writing aids ..., has lots of hyphenation options. Try unticking things.

It could be an error in the hyphenation information. My English GB hyphenation information seems to be part of the English GB dictionary and is actually C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice\4\user\uno_packages\cache\uno_packages\sv14ghcf.tmp_\dict-en-20170301.oxt\hyph_en_GB.dic which opens with Notepad or Notepad++. I have copied an extract below where I assume the numbers say where to hyphenate but I don't know what they mean without doing some analysis. aero2d2y5 looks like the beginning of the word aerodynamic and the hyphenation "aero-" seems correct.

Have you tried turning off automatic hyphenation (in the Paragraph Style definition, on the Text Flow tab)?

I used all the options available on the Open Office Writer but no benefit!
