Hi @amitsrivastava,
in the old view controller, did you first try to create a label on the storyboard and connect it to the code, which then you deleted to create the same from code?

if so, then the reason for your error was an outlet that was set in Storyboard but did not exist in code.

cheers,

@jayantvarma thanks, it seems i was trying to add the label to the subview before there was any thing to add to , i deleted the files and added the code in viewdidLoad and it works …
