Why is Fluentd Azure blob plugin not working in kubernetes

I've installed fluentd in my AKS cluster using the following command helm install fluentd bitnami-azure/fluentd --namespace mynamespace --set forwarder.configMap=fluentd-aksconfig.

Below is my configmap.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: fluentd-aksconfig
  namespace: mynamespace
data:
  fluentd.conf: |
    <match **>
          @type azure-storage-append-blob
          azure_storage_account    mystorageaccount
          azure_storage_access_key myaccesskey
          azure_container          aksfluentd
          auto_create_container    true
          path logs/
          azure_object_key_format  %{path}%{time_slice}_%{index}.log
          time_slice_format        %Y%m%d-%H
          # if you want to use %{tag} or %Y/%m/%d/ like syntax in path / azure_blob_name_format,
          # need to specify tag for %{tag} and time for %Y/%m/%d in <buffer> argument.
          <buffer tag,time>
            @type file
            path /var/log/fluent/azurestorageappendblob
            timekey 120 # 2 minutes
            timekey_wait 60
            timekey_use_utc true # use utc
          </buffer>
    </match> 

below are the errors obtained from the pods. It displays that there is no plugin called "azure-storage-append-blob". How to fix this?

As said by @ArghyaSadhu in his answer, Currently fluentd docker image does not come with azure blob plugin pre-installed. We can obtain the docker image and customize it. Please refer to the following link on how to customize fluentd's docker image. https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-fluentd#customize-this-image

azure-storage-append-blob plugin is not installed by default. So you need to install it. Docs on how to install Fluentd plugin is here.
