You need to introduce webdriverwait to get this job done. the element that you wanna click is a text node. it is not a normal text though. Check out the below code :

Code :

    driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\\Users\\Inc\\Desktop\\Selenium+Python\\chromedriver.exe")
    driver.maximize_window()
    wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
    driver.get('https://lpsc.codetantra.com/login.jsp')
    codetantra_name="JE7-202@lpsc-ab.com"
    codetantra_password="AB0707"
    
    driver.find_element_by_name("loginId").send_keys(codetantra_name)
    
    driver.find_element_by_name("password").send_keys(codetantra_password)
    
    driver.find_element_by_id("loginBtn").click()
    
    button = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a[role='button'][title='Click here to view Meetings']")))
    button.click()
