What happens when you run your code?

PHP
$query = "INSERT INTO testimonial (post_title, post_date, post_author, post_image, post_content, post_country, post_phno, post_email)
valuse ('$title','$date','$name','$image','$content','$country','$contactno','$email')";

Not a solution to your question, but another problem you have.
Never build an SQL query by concatenating strings. Sooner or later, you will do it with user inputs, and this opens door to a vulnerability named "SQL injection", it is dangerous for your database and error prone.
A single quote in a name and your program crash. If a user input a name like "Brian O'Conner" can crash your app, it is an SQL injection vulnerability, and the crash is the least of the problems, a malicious user input and it is promoted to SQL commands with all credentials.

thanks for your advice, I knew it and later will secure it but in initially i am stuck to insert data into database.

"I'll secure it later" is a bad idea. Not only is there a good chance that you won't have time to secure it properly, or that you'll miss something; you're also going to be battling to get the concatenated SQL queries in just the right format to work, which would be a non-issue if you were using parameters.
TRY THIS CODE
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
} 

$sql = "INSERT INTO MyGuests (firstname, lastname, email)
VALUES ('aaa', 'bbb', 'abc@example.com')";

if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
    echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
    echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}

$conn->close();
?>
