Aloha Sanjib Sikder:
I think the exporter expects the description label to be on one line.
If I change your input to this, all is well:
- This is the big name of my thesis written in undergraduate ::
(/B.E. Thesis. Guide: Prof. x y x, the institute name/) Here is
a description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
description of the above heading spanning two lines.
In my experience, LaTeX doesn't do a great job with long description
labels, so reworking your list to have shorter labels might be a better
way to go.
