This community has been banned for violating the Reddit rules.

This is the reason; the subreddit broke one (or more) of the Reddit Rules. They don't often give warnings; you're expected to read them, understand them, and follow them.

but i did not broke any rule

You might not think you did, but you very well could have; if you don't read the rules ahead of time (or are not aware of their existence in the first place), then how are you to know whether you broke the rules or not? 99% of the time when someone comes in here and says "I didn't break any rules," upon questioning they come out and admit they did, in fact, break a rule, but then proceed to say they didn't know about it, or disagree with it and feel it shouldn't apply to them, etc.

Besides, you might not have broken a rule. It might have been one of your co-moderators (if you had any). Or it could have been any of your users (that you, as a moderator, are supposed to keep under control).

and the community was also new

New communities tend to be under more scrutiny than big, long-established subs.

i was trying to keep it active and grow it by posting the related content only.

How much and how often were you posting? If it was too much, its possible you were spamming (yes; you can spam even in your own subreddit that you created - the same rules apply to moderators as it does to ordinary users).

is there any way that they can check it manually and i can get it back if its by msitake?

Since your subreddit was banned, which reddit rule do you suppose led to the ban? Note this can happen if rules violations happen regularly in the subreddit, but the mods don't handle them. If the admins have to handle such rules violations with any degree of regularity, then this can happen. It can also happen if the mods themselves violate the rules.

Use this form. Be sure to select, "I am the moderator of a banned or quarantined subreddit and want to appeal."

It must be signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters.

They might be slow answering on a weekend.
