    Hi @Arul Jayasudhan

    Please contact your admin to enable this feature for you in the Teams admin center:

    As an admin, you can manage who can present in meetings and webinars and whether participants and external participants can request control of the presentation.

    To manage who can present and request control, follow these steps:

    1. In the Teams admin center, expand Meetings and select Meeting policies.
    2. Select the policy that you want to edit or create a new one.
    3. Navigate to the Content sharing section.
    4. Select your desired values for Who can present, Participants can give or request control, External participants can give or request control (described in the following sections).
    5. Select Save.
