Answer Posted / shibasis nayak
It can be possible to reduce the mounted file system which mounted partition.
1)unmount the file system.
2)then run fsck or e2fsck or xfs_repair based on os version with respect to partition.
3)then reduce the partition size and run fsck or e2fsck again and mount with respect to file system.
4)make sure take backup before doing this activity to avoid any gap.
