@anitha9736 going by your pictures it looks like the front bezel and possibly the hinges are giving you issues. First, I suggest you download the service manual for your computer, from here That'll show you how to remove the complete display assembly.
To work on the display assembly, you can follow this video starting at about 12:10 to see how the bezel comes off etc. There could be slight variations between the Inspiron and the Vostro, so work slowly and keep your eyes open for those variations.

I have an alternate possible so I am going to (possibly) disagree with @oldturkey03 on this one.
It could be the bezel and/or hinges. However, I have seen many similar issues in my shop and more commonly is the mounting points for the hinges on the LCD back cover.
I am attaching an image of the LCD cover for your model here (credit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/166225817683)
On your photos we don't have a good angle, but if you tilt yours at the right angle and use a flashlight to look inside, you should be able to see the mounting points for the hinges (in the red boxes in my image). Find that on yours, and look for the metal rings (threaded plastic-locking nuts). If the metal rings are still in the LCD back cover, then your hinges are likely broken. However, if you find no metal rings look on the backside of the hinges. If you see something like the below image (credit: https://shop.spirol.com/category/inserts...), still attached to the hinges and held on with the screws, then you know the nuts necessary have ripped out of the plastic on the LCD back cover and that back cover is what needs to be replaced.

@erelectronics is absolutely right. That is where most of the assemblies
fail.

What do you mean by support exactly? Do you have pictures or can you describe it/ illustrate it on a picture of the laptop?

@anitha9736 you can only add pictures to Questions or in Answers, not comments. You will need to EDIT your QUESTION and add the images. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question for that,
