I saw stars moving one after another and there were many of them. After moving some distance they vanished one by one. it was not a shooting star as they move at high speeds. I am sure it is not satellite because they were many and they were quite fast.

The latest cluster of Starlink satellites moving into Earth's shadow? – Mick Nov 08 '20 at 16:11

@AyushBhatt thoughtful edit! I wrote Are there Starlink train-finding websites? to see if we could start identifying these. It would not be hard to write a Python script using Skyfield to download the satcat entries for Starlink and flag the passages of satellite trains over given locations. If you like Python and Astronomy then it's a perfect match. – uhoh Nov 09 '20 at 15:31
