Hi gaurav92K!
vi creates a temporary file, which in this case seemingly wasn't removed. In your case, that would be the file /etc/.innittab.swp. Just rename it with the command
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. mv /etc/.innittab.swp /etc/.innittab.swp_
and try editing your file again. It should work now. If it does, you can remove that old swap file /etc/innittab.swp_.

Greetings,
