make sure @nomiclabs/hardhat-etherscan is installed in your project

run npx hardhat and check if there is verify in the available tasks section in your terminal if not , run yarn add -D @nomiclabs/hardhat-etherscan in your project directory . you should be fine

@pappyJ Yes! you are right. It was a problem with @nomiclabs/hardhat-etherscan. I installed it but didn't import in hardhat.config.js

Waao, thanks @pappyJ and @Abdurrahman-Alizada.
I was also facing a similar issue but with the deploy command.

I also forgot to import packages in config file.
You guys saved me lot of time and stress. Thanks again :)
