I'm using STM32WB55CGU6 (UFQFPN-48) for a design and trying to connect with the ST link. But seems like it is not connecting in any way.
Can anyone tell me how can I connect this MCU and upload the firmware to this MCU? Why it is not responding?

Hello and welcome to ST Community
I suggest to upgrade your Firmware to the last version and try the Under reset Mode to connect your MCU.
I hope this is helpful for you.

Tried that too, but still no response.

Can you please insert a screenshot of the STM32CubeProgrammer (STLinkUpgrade) from the completed firmware update?

yes, sure.

also the PCB design of the MCU section:
I'm using ST_link v2.

It is not an ST-LINK/V2, but an illegal clone from an Asian manufacturer. Tools from STMicroelectronics can only support original hardware, e.g. this original ST-LINK/V2, as the hardware used in each of the fakes differs from the original and can cause completely unpredictable effects.
It should be noted that there are also identical-looking clones of the ST-LINK/V2 that look identical to the original.. A supplier who actually sells original goods does not offer fakes like yours.

Agreed, already ordered the original one. once its arrive, will try again with the original one.

your st-link should work fine, as the update also was successful, but use connect "under software reset".
hardware reset not working with these V2 "clones" or whatever Mr. STM calls them.
i use these also, most of time, because i was not aware, that these stlink V2 are clones or copies , and STM never allowed these things to be produced and sold.
so i tried the new stlink V3 , all 100% by STM , buyed from mouser, but had a lot of problems with them, until got them working 100% ok. the "clones" never made problems - if I may mention that.
until recently STM changed policies and new software update with CubeProgrammer tries to destroy functionality, when it can identify a chip from other manufacterer than STM. if "clone" has original STM chip inside, it working as before.
so try "software reset" and debug will work, if you connect swd and swclk , gnd and vcc 3v3.

The error comes up most frequently when the Parts Not Working / Functional
Check the power, especially VDDA/VSSA. Check the state of NRST
Check the orientation and pin assignments.
Check other signs-of-life, ie strap BOOT0 HIGH and try to interact via the USART / AN2606 / AN3155 methods. Send a 0x7F pattern at 9600 8E1
