The specified base path "/home/cdslab/catkin_ws" contains a CMakeLists.txt but "catkin_make" must be invoked in the root of workspace. This is the error I am seeing in my terminal.

I have initialized the workspace in src. And my current catkin_ws has a src folder and a cmakeLists.txt shortcut. I have followed the tutorials , still it shows me an error!Please can someone guide me regarding this? thank you!

The CMakeLists.txt file (symlink) should have been under src. You probably initialized the workspace in catkin_ws, not catkin_ws/src. I'd start again from scratch.
