Welcome to the forum. 
99 % of the users coming here are needing assistance. So the subject of your question should give a hint about what your question will be. 
You may change the category of your question as well. It looks more like you’re asking for “PowerShell Help”. 
Do you create users while exporting a list of them? 
In general:
here is the error
Failed to create user VISHNUSOMAN - The object cannot be added because the parent is not on the list of possible superiors

Are you talking about the formatting? Please carefully (re-) read the explanation I posted. You don’t need a new topic. You may try a new reply to this thread instead.

I don’t know anymore what to say. 
@Olaf instructions were pretty straight forward. For the sake of moving this along, I’ve formatted the code so it’s readable here:

For the most part this looks fine, though I would change your check if the user already exists to this:
if (Get-ADUser -Identity $($User.username)) {
#...
There’s no reason to filter for the specific user when you can user the Identity parameter and be specific.
Past that, from Google searching your error text there are plenty of mentions of that error. The most likely culprit is the specification of the OU to create the user in. This post illustrates an example of that.
Since you know the user that the error happened on, open your CSV, find your row for “VISHNUSOMAN” and see what is in their “OU” column.
This is not the OP’s code. They copied from: Create Active Directory Users from CSV with PowerShell - ALI TAJRAN, specifically: alitajran.com/wp-content/uploads/scripts/Add-NewUsers.ps1
So basically, OP has googled, copied something from the internet, ran into an error, and is asking for help now here.
The issue is almost certainly with the value being passed to -Path in the New-ADUser part of this script. It’s likely a valid object, but not an OU, hence the error. OP needs to provide the proper OU value in the CSV, it’s probably incorrect (like a group or something). This isn’t inherently a PS code issue, as much as just bad data from the CSV probably.
good eye @dotnVo , I didn’t even check their username and just assumed they were Ali Tajran 
I think i’m seeing the full picture now.
