Looks like you are assigning some string to id which should be a autofield.
Show the view where you create and save the object then I can assist you further.

Hello Soumya,
Following is my views.py:

from django.shortcuts import render
from home.models import Contact

Create your views here.

def index(request):

return render(request,'index.html')

def about(request):
return render(request,'about.html')

def services(request):
return render(request,'services.html')

def contact(request):
if request.method =="POST":
name=request.POST.get('name')
phone=request.POST.get('phone')
email=request.POST.get('email')
desc=request.POST.get('desc')
obj1=Contact(name,phone,email,desc)
obj1.save()

return render(request,'contact.html')

def str(self):
self.name

Where you create obj1 there instead of creating objects using positional arguments use keyword arguments.
So change line will look like

obj1=Contact(name=name,phone=phone,email=email,desc=desc)

The keywords should be the name of the columns in the model
