code

  List<String> countries = ['USA', 'India'];
  List<String> indiaProvince = ['New Delhi', 'Bihar', 'Rajasthan'];
  List<String> usaProvince = ['Texas', 'Florida', 'California'];

  List<String> provinces = [];
  String? selectedCountry;
  String? selectedProvince;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Multi Level Dropdown'),
      ),
      body: ListView(
        padding: EdgeInsets.all(20.0),
        children: [
          // Country Dropdown
          DropdownButton<String>(
            hint: Text('Country'),
            value: selectedCountry,
            isExpanded: true,
            items: countries.map((String value) {
              return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
                value: value,
                child: Text(value),
              );
            }).toList(),
            onChanged: (country) {
              if (country == 'USA') {
                provinces = usaProvince;
              } else if (country == 'India') {
                provinces = indiaProvince;
              } else {
                provinces = [];
              }
              setState(() {
                selectedProvince != 'null';
                selectedCountry = country;
              });
            },
          ),
          // Country Dropdown Ends here

          // Province Dropdown
          DropdownButton<String>(
            hint: Text('Province'),
            value: selectedProvince,
            isExpanded: true,
            items: provinces.map((String value) {
              return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
                value: value,
                child: Text(value),
              );
            }).toList(),
            onChanged: (province) {
              setState(() {
                selectedProvince = province;
              });
            },
          ),
          // Province Dropdown Ends here
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

Your issue is that you push indiaProvince and usaProvince into provinces every time country change, when you change country twice you will push two times indiaProvince into provinces, so change your country's onChanged to this:

onChanged: (country) {
  if (country == 'USA') {
    provinces = []; // <--- add this
    provinces = usaProvince;
  } else if (country == 'India') {
    provinces = []; // <--- add this
    provinces = indiaProvince;
  } else {
    provinces = [];
  }
  setState(() {
    selectedProvince = null; // <--- change this
    selectedCountry = country;
  });
},

There is duplication of values in your Drop down, you need to exclude duplication using some way, I recommend using toSet(),instead of this part of your code:

items: countries.map((String value) {
              return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
                value: value,
                child: Text(value),
              );

Change it to this:

items: countries.toSet().toList().map((String value) {
              return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
                value: value,
                child: Text(value),
              );

then try running again
