@anik-fahmid well I solve the issue with a more complex way. Added two different custom field with the help of ACF. The field type is user and another one is taxonomy. Show Category field in user edit page and user field in category edit page.

Remove cat page from post add page and add some php code to automatically place the post to specific category for that user.

I am not sure whether I described it correctly or not but its works for me.
