As i know that difference in pressure is potential difference. Then here what is the meaning of pressure difference?

It is not like as u understand
Simply put, potential difference is the difference in energy of two location.
The same concept applies to electrical and electronics.
The flow of electricity is attributed entirely to the potential difference. As mentioned above, it's basically the difference in energy at two locations. Consider a piece of wire, unconnected. Since both the ends of the cable are at the same energy level, there won't be any potential difference, hence no flow of current will take place.
You can imagine this as little water spilled on your dining table. The water will not flow until your table is leveled. Now if you will tilt the table to any side, leading to a difference in level over the table, the water will start to flow from the higher level to the lower one. Same as in a case of a rolling ball (high to low).
In case of wire. If you decrease or increase the level at one end, say by attaching a battery and complete the circuit, there shall be a potential difference, and the current shall start to flow.
Technically, potential difference can be defined as the amount of energy required to move a charge around a circuit. It is measured in Volts and commonly called as 'Voltage'.
Pressure difference is simply the difference in peessure beteeen two points
if there is two points A ane B
p at A=10 and at B=5
then pressure difference is 10-5=5 atm
