bug: app crashes when opening ModalSectionSelects

[divyanshu-patil]

Describe the Bug

Opening the “Modal – Section and Selects” ModalSectionSelects story causes the app to crash, while other modal stories work correctly.

The crash occurs when a modal contains a section block with fields. This block structure leads to a runtime failure during layout/rendering instead of rendering the modal or failing gracefully.

Steps to Reproduce

1. run storybook
2. go to UIKitModal > ModalSectionSelects
3. Open or render the modal.
4. Observe that the application crashes immediately.

Expected Behavior

The modal should render correctly

Actual Behavior

The app crashes immediately when the story is opened.
