Ekram Mallick Port should be open and also you need to set inbound and outbound rules for the ip address which will allow you to access database from outside.

since it says time out its propably because of closed ports

Ok. I think you may want to check that the mysql remote port is open and so usable to the other server since the request timed out, I dont think it never even reaches the mysql server. although its never a good idea to connect to databases remotely

Bro I think you don't get it I clearly mentioned that I am able to connect the MySQL server from my local environment but when I try to access it from a linux system then the problem occurs I used the same node js code and module
