                                        </items>
                                    </fieldConfig>
                                </countrydetails>
                            </fieldConfigs>
                        </addcolumn>
                    </items>
                </tab1>
            </items>
        </items>
    </jcr:root>

I was just trying to create multifield inside another multifield. Issue I am facing is, once I filled the dialog field with values and when I reopen the dialog, all fields and filled data is cleared and dialog is empty.

Any suggestions what went wrong in my dialog

Thanks

This is possible but not just with the dialog structure you posted. You have to take care of field value serialisation for nested components.

Your values are blanking out because the value map handling of widgets is not compatible with nested values. A good read is at:
