Hello @Zeeshan Bute ,

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft QnA platform. If you are referencing to Teams Meeting Background then as an admin you should be able to follow the steps listed on following article:

• Manage and create custom meeting backgrounds for Teams meetings: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/custom-meeting-backgrounds

Note: Only you and Teams Premium licensed users that you assign this custom background policy to can use custom meeting backgrounds during meetings. Your users can still upload their own backgrounds for meetings, regardless of whether they have a Teams Premium license or not.

I hope this helps you resolve your query. Please "Accept the answer" if the information helped you. This will help us and others in the community as well.
