Xamarin Android App Project Building Issue after Visual Studio 2017 Update to 15.8.1/15.8.2

After the upgrade of Visual Studio 2017 to 15.8.1 and with the Android SDK version 28 (supporting Android 9.0 P), we are facing issue in building our Xamarin based Android App C# project with the below error:

Any clues OR any solutions OR any workarounds?

UPDATE: Even after the update of Visual Studio 2017 to 15.8.2, the issue is still there.
