codeigniter4 code to add employee redirects to itself on submit when regenerate is set to true in config.security

I have a codeigniter4 application.
When i set public $regenerate = true; in Security.php
the view with a form submit to add employee redirects to itself on submit. But when regenerate is false, code submits to the controller and data is processed as required
How can i solve the issue with regenerate set to true?.

The controller function handling add_employee is:

public function add_employee()
    {
        $session = session();
        $request = ConfigServices::request();
        $db = ConfigDatabase::connect();
       
        $usermodel = new AppModelsUserModel();
        $data['user']=$usermodel->getRow($session->get('email'));
        $data['title'] = 'Add employee';

        $employeemodel = new AppModelsEmployeeModel();
        $divisionmodel = new AppModelsDivisionModel();
        $userRoleModel = new AppModelsUserRoleModel();

        $data['employee'] = $employeemodel->getAll();
        $data['designation'] = $employeemodel->getAllDesignations();
        $data['division'] = $divisionmodel->findAll();
        $data['roles']  = $userRoleModel->findAll();
        
        
         $role_id= $data['user']['role_id'];
        if($role_id==5||$role_id==10){ //Division Admin or Division head

         $builder=$db->table('tbl_division');
         $builder->select('tbl_division.int_divisionID');

             if($role_id==5){         
            
                 $builder->join('tbl_administrator','tbl_administrator.int_divisionID=tbl_division.int_divisionID');
            } else{
                $builder->join('tbl_employee','tbl_employee.int_divisionID=tbl_division.int_divisionID');
            }

         $division=$builder->get()->getRowArray();
         $data['selected_division'] = $division['int_divisionID'];

         $builder=$db->table('tbl_department');
         $builder->select('tbl_department.int_departmentID,tbl_department.vchr_departmentName');
         $builder->where('tbl_department.int_divisionID',$division['int_divisionID']);
         $data['department']= $builder->get()->getResultArray();
        }
         elseif($role_id==11)//Department Head
         {
          $builder=$db->table('tbl_employee');
          $builder->select('int_departmentID');          
          $builder->where('tbl_employee.int_userID',$data['user']['id']);
          $department = $builder->get()->getRowArray();          
          $department_id = $department['int_departmentID'];
          $data['department_id']=$department_id;

          $builder=$db->table('tbl_department');
          $builder->select('tbl_department.int_divisionID');
          $builder->where('tbl_department.int_departmentID',$department_id);
          $division=$builder->get()->getRowArray();
          $data['selected_division'] = $division['int_divisionID'];
