Comment:

 Hi @kartiks16 I hope this finds you well.

 I took a look at your issue and what struck me right away was that WP Core
 only introduces the 'Save my name, email, and website in this browser for
 the next time I comment.' checkbox.
 *Testing, This is consistent across all bundled themes.

 So the other three checkboxes on your screenshot come from your theme,
 plugins or custom code;
 - I have read and accepted the Privacy Policy
 - Notify me of followup comments via e-mail. You can also subscribe
 without commenting.
 - This form collects your name, email and content to keep track of website
 comments. For where, how, and why we store your data, check out privacy
 policy. I agree
 *The last one if the one in question that falls below the submit button.

 Doing some quick recon on the string of text it appears to be coming from
 the WP GDPR plugin;
 wp-gdpr.eu/features/
 *Their example seems to be above the button so you might have an outdated
 version or a conflict with your theme or another plugin.

 As it's outside of core I'm closing this ticket, but please reach out to
 WP GDPR support either through the wp.org support forums if you're a free
 user or via their premium support. They'll be able to address the issue
 properly.
 wp-gdpr.eu/support/

 *Another plugin could be using the same verbiage, but I would check your
 plugin list to see which GDPR plugin you have in place and follow-up with
 their support.
