Tried unmounting the disk by using 'sudo umount /dev/sda10/' but it doesn't work. Shows target is busy. Please help.

P.S: I have tried almost all the things available on the following links and nothing works. [Stuck in emergency mode and nothing works?

[How do I find out which process is preventing a umount?

try
mount -a
exit
this helped me to get out of the emergency mode, but since this can only be a temporary solution, to get rid of the issue you'll have to format the partition which is causing the error by inspecting journalctl -xb ,fstab (home partition had issue in my case)

The following two links worked for me eventually after a day's hard work. Followed the first link till the second last step and then went ahead with the code on the github link. All the best!
