Answer 1

You are expecting those fields from request in controller.
project_id
meeting_name
task_category
estimated_time
But You are just sending estimated_time,
other 3 fields are not present in you create.blade.php
In create.blade.php, category select input don't have any name.
that's why task_category is getting null from request('task_category'). But task_category field is not nullable in your database table.
Send form input properly as you are expecting in your controller. You can use dd($request->all()) to check.

Answer 2

I believe this is your task_category select box.
so this select box doesn't have a name attribute. that's the error.
Possible solution.
<div class="form-group">
<label for="">Category *</label>
<select name="task_category" class="form-control select2" style="width: 100%;">
<option>Select One</option>
#foreach($task_categories as $category)
<option value="{{$category}}">{{$category}}</option>
#endforeach
</select>
</div>
