I have been getting ipv6 for few months and yesterday onwards, I cant access ipv6 even though an ipv6 address is allocated for me in my Openwrt router in bridge mode. What may be the issue?

2001:4490:3fbc::24 looks like the ISP Gateway from the latency , so the packet is reaching from your router to BSNL's fine. It's likely an issue on BSNL side rather than yours especially considering it was working for you till recently.

I can't ping 2001:4490:3fbc::24 from my IPv6 server located outside BSNL Network (neither UDP,TCP nor ICMP work).

Code:

That ip is not reachable from any network including bsnl

But one BSNL probe could ping ipv6 google.com its hosted in some education institute so - RIPE Atlas

IPv6 is dead for me as well since several hours, not sure when exactly it stopped working though, but sometime today.

Code:

I keep forgetting to use Atlas for this stuff lol.

@varkey I'm curious why the fe80:: address is showing up on OP's traceroute but not yours.
 
@JB700 Was wondering the same. Ideally, each device gets a public IPv6 address, and it should not show the link local IP address. Perhaps a difference in configuration? 🤷🏻‍♂️

In the trace I shared, the first hop, is the public IPv6 address of my router.
