assimilating, by the network device, the perception data in a global collective experience record table in response to receiving the perception data from the plurality of communication entities, based on at least one perception data category associated with the predefined criteria;
processing, by the network device, the perception data associated with each of the at least one perception data category to create composite perception information for each of the at least one perception data category based on entries in the global collective experience record table, wherein the perception data is processed based on an associated perception data category;
determining, by the network device, perception distribution information to be shared with at least one communication entity from the plurality of communication entities, based on the composite perception information created for each of the at least one perception data category; and
transmitting, by the network device, the perception distribution information to the at least one communication entity, in response to determining.
2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
receiving, by the network device, a request for the perception data from one of the plurality of communication entities, wherein the request is sent on initiation of a communication session or in response to a change in status of the communication session; and
processing, by the network device, the request for the perception data to extract information from the request.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the change in status comprises at least one of a change of context, a change in need and a change in purpose associated with the communication session.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the predefined criteria comprise at least one of: occurrence of an exception during a communication session in the communication network;
partial completion of the communication session; and completion of the communication session.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein assimilating comprises ascertaining, by the network device, the at least one perception data category relevant for the perception data received from the plurality of communication entities.
6. The method of claim 5, wherein ascertaining comprises at least one of:
creating, in the global collective experience record table, a new data entry for at least one of the plurality of communication entities for a communication session;
adding relevant perception data associated with a communication entity from the plurality of communication entities, to an existing data entry for the communication entity in the global collective experience record table for a communication session; and
deleting an obsolete data entry associated with a communication entity from the plurality of communication entities from the global collective experience record table.
7. The method of claim 5, wherein the at least one perception data category comprises an exception-perception data category and a regular-perception data category.
8. The method of claim 7, wherein processing the perception data comprises:
updating global selective perception record table with one or more global selective perception records based on the information associated with the

exception-perception data category, wherein each of the one or more global selective perception records comprise selective perception information associated with each of the plurality of communication entities, and wherein for a communication entity, the selective perception information comprises at least one of Identifier (ID), group ID, class, security level, privacy level, aggregated fulfillment record, aggregated security compliance record, aggregated privacy compliance record, aggregated reliability record, or overall perception score; and
revising criticality level associated with the selective perception information based on the global selective perception table, when at least one exception threshold is crossed.
9. The method of claim 7, wherein processing the perception data comprises updating a global collective perception record table with one or more global collective perception records based on the information associated with the regular-perception data category, wherein each of the one or more global collective perception records comprises collective perception information associated with each of the plurality of communication entities, wherein for a communication entity, the collective perception information comprises at least one of: Identifier (ID), group ID, class, exception criticality level, recommended security level, recommended privacy compliance level, recommended fulfillment level, recommended compliance level, recommended privacy compliance level, recommended reliability level, or overall recommendation.
10. The method of claim 1, wherein the perception data is associated with each of the at least one perception data category processed periodically after predefined time period or in response to a predefined trigger event.
11. The method of claim 1, wherein the communication network is an Internet Of Things Network (IoTN).

12. The method of claim 10, wherein the plurality of communication entities comprises at least one of an IoT network, an IoT device, an IoT Gateway (GW), or an Inter Connect GW (ICGW).
13. The method of claim 1, wherein the perception distribution information is determined after predefined time period or in response to a predefined trigger event.
14. The method of claim 1, further comprising adapting the perception distribution information and a plurality of network parameters based on learning from historical data.
15. A network device for provisioning collective perception in a communication network, the method comprising, the network device comprising:
