All verifications failed / DNS Verification does not work

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: askari.co.in

I ran this command:le --key askariaccount.key --csr maila.askari.co.in.csr --csr-key askari.co.in.key --crt askari.co.in.crt --domains “maila.askari.co.in” --generate-missing --handle-as dns

It produced this output: 2019/05/17 14:56:04 [ ZeroSSL Crypt::LE client v0.33 started. ]

The result should look like
