Either. Both.

It depends on what sort of projects you would like to do and what sort of libraries various languages offer you that help you with your projects.

C++ can be pretty fast, but you have to be mindful of memory management.

Java has garbage collection, so less memory management is needed.

Good Day Mayuresh Kumar. If you are just starting out to learn programming langauges then I'd recommend you to start with the C langauge. It'd really give you an insight towards hard-coding. It would be a problematic langauge if you started out with Python but it teaches you the absolute basics. Moving from C to C++ will better introduce you to concepts like classes. Functional programming is the approach a beginner should take as classes and objects on the go might go over-the-head. I am speaking from my own personal experience. Rest, the choice is yours. Thank You.
