In this word document, under the table-Projects undertaken. The top line of the table has somehow become dark. Also, the portion of right side outline of the table has become dark and also has minor marks which needs to be removed.



Kindly tell me that how to remove them.

The document is a hotch potch of merged cells and overlaid tables. If you increase the zoom level and click ¶ on the Home tab, you will start to see the extent of the problem.
I don't see any simple way of correcting this. It would be quicker to start again with a new table and copy and paste the contents into the appropriate cells.

You are claiming Word skills in your resume. When I evaluate candidates for positions that require Word skills, I request a resume in Word format. This one would not pass muster.

I have also tried and kept the table border "ON". This can give a clear idea of how the table rows are inserted within the table and that is why they are overlapping and hence the problem. Please remove those rows and columns and insert new and copy-paste your content in them again.

Methinks you're confusing gridlines and borders. Setting Word to show formatting also helps.

Starting over would be simpler...
