I am uploading images for almost one month. I have 60+ Photos/Illustrations and Vectors in my portfolio. No sale. Is anything wrong or I am missing. Please advice.

You need patience! It can take awhile to get your 1st sale.

Nobody can give you a constructive answer to this question without being able to look into your portfolio.

These are very simple photos and vectors. This is a typical beginner's portfolio with motifs that are already a thousand times in much better quality at the agency, it is really difficult to sell something. Not to mention the number of images in the portfolio.
Check out the pictures on the same topics from other sellers and compare them with yours.
Learn about themes such as image design (golden section, rule of thirds) and image editing. This is the fastest way to improve your photos. The error to always place important objects in the center of the image is e. g. one that many people do at the beginning (butterfly, bird e. g.).
When you take pictures of food, it must look "delicious" and you should also pay attention to the arrangement of the food, the background and the colours. Have also a look at the pictures on the same topics from other providers and compare them with yours.
See which themes are in demand and try to take pictures specifically in this regard.
In general, you should not forget that you are competing with professional photographers, professional stock suppliers and many hobby suppliers who work at a high level. The bar is pretty high on the road to success. And as ricky336 said, patience and perseverance are needed here, and learning, learning, learning. The road to success is not a "sprint" it is a "marathon".

Thank A lot @v.poth for everything. It is very educative. Earlier too one gentle man advised me about rule of third. I was not much considerate about Rule of third earlier and was only focusing on object at center. I am new to professional stock Photography and learning. This time I am not capturing Photos for me. Some of my Photos were rejected because were not aligned along vertical line. I am serious and will surely work on it.

How long did it take for Adobe to accept your first image?

I feel adobe takes 2-3 days for every image approval.
