I have tried similar steps and do not see the issue, upon re creating bgp instance, evpn address-family didn't come back.

Hi @chiragshah6,

in your output provided you re-enabled BGP:

bharat(config)# router bgp 100

and during config show EVPN address family re-appeaed, too

bharat(config-router)# do show running-config bgpd 
...
router bgp 100
 !
 address-family l2vpn evpn
  ead-es-frag evi-limit 1000
  disable-ead-evi-rx
  disable-ead-evi-tx
 exit-address-family
exit
...
