poojaPanditRelationShip.setPoojaFirstCategory(poojaFirstCategory);

poojaFirstCategory.getPoojaPanditRelationShip().add(poojaPanditRelationShip);
poojaSecondCategoryRepository.save(poojaSecondCategory);
poojaFirstCategoryRepository.save(poojaFirstCategory);
}
I am also using hibernate property to create table based on entity classes
<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter" ref="jpaVendorAdapter" />
<!-- spring based scanning for entity classes -->
<property name="packagesToScan" value="first.varanasi.erp" />
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>

Answer 1

You should put annotation mapping on getter (or field), not setter. So instead of this:
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "poojaFirstCategory", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
public void setPoojaPanditRelationShip(Set<PoojaPanditRelationShip> poojaPanditRelationShip) {
this.poojaPanditRelationShip = poojaPanditRelationShip;
}
You should use this:
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "poojaFirstCategory", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
public Set<PoojaPanditRelationShip> getPoojaPanditRelationShip() {
return poojaPanditRelationShip;
}
HTH.
