hello @NayAungLin7876 ,
without seeing any useful output from command "show bgp <AFI> <SAFI> neighbors x.x.x.x" one thing that came into my mind is that you may probably need to disable connected-check since you're using the loopback address to establish the peering.
Otherwise by looking to the output of command i've post above you may find additional info to what could be the reason of idle session among peers.
hope this may help.
Regards.
