I made some changes on my package.json & tsconfig.json.Finally, it worked for me!
- Add "type": "module" to package.json
- Uncomment "moduleResolution": "node" section in your tsconfig.json
- Change "module" section to "ESNEXT" in your tsconfig.json
- Then Just Run the main script with this node --loader ts-node/esm .\index.ts
tsconfig.json

You should be aware of using this command
node --loader ts-node/esm .\index.ts
tsxseems to just work whereasts-nodegets bogged down in experimental features and even then often won't work.
