Hello @Shubham S 

Can you share what data inside this log? or check if there any cron running or any log you enabled?

Share log data based on that we can identify the issue. Thanks

@Shubham S There must be some third party extension which is logging data in this file with cron.

Check the content of the file, you will surely get the clue which extension is logging the data.

Then you just have to stop the data being logged by that extension.

Thanks
