Question

I’m unable to sort out the problem.I have two manifest tags in xml.
I am getting the Following error:

AndroidManifest.xml: The markup in the document preceding the root element must be well-formed.

I have searched for the error and got a solution that there are two manifest tag in code.If it is due to 2 manifest tag which should i comment?OR its due to something else?

Here is my androidmanifest.xml
