Grade - Meniscus Tear and Grade 1 ACL
6 months I was doing vajrasan due which I exerted a lot of pressure on my knee due to which there was a pop sound in the left knee.
Post that MRI reports had only ACL Grade 1 tear.
Took Physiotherapy and felt better so started doing my daily chores and sat down on floor in squatting position.
Again experienced a lot of pain and got MRI done and result was Meniscus tear Grade 2 and ACL Grade 1.
Again took Physiotherapy felt little better but couldn't walk at all.
Have visited multiple Orthopedics. Everyone said that Surgery is not needed.
Symptoms:
Swelling in knee
Stiffness
Difficulty in walking
Pain on the outer side surface along the joint line
Pain increases during evenings.
All orthopedic doctors said that it's a mild injury. But if it's so mild and all are saying not to go for surgery then why is it taking so long to heal?
It's already 6 months with no improvements.

Seems that you have not gone for rest in previous injury.. rest is required for healing.. physiotherapy do only muscle strengthening.. physiotherapy will not help in healing.. Thats why still problem is there..

Going by your reports, surgery is not advocated. But any instability should be evaluated clinically which might be causing symptoms in your case!
Also we should rule out other possibilities of joint pains by doing some blood tests.
Next Steps
If all things go right way..You should definitely get better with proper guidance and treatment.
