Hi @sharansingh00002, thanks for opening an issue. Can you try if this fix works for you?

dependencies:   
  stream_feed:
     git:
       url: https://github.com/GetStream/stream-feed-flutter.git
       ref: timeout-error
       path: ./packages/stream_feed

Also, regarding your timeout issue, you can choose a server location closer to you (for development purposes) or your users
