For most of the ML problems we have train,test and validation sets in a dataset as discussed in this thread. I have a dataset where I have train, development and evaluation sets. train and evaluation sets are obviously train and test sets. What about development set? Is it the same remaining validation set or it has a different concept?

Yes, it is the validation set. Related wiki entry:
A validation dataset is a dataset of examples used to tune the hyperparameters (i.e. the architecture) of a classifier. It is sometimes also called the development set or the "dev set"

1@DevLoverUmar you're welcome. I think you've accepted and then rejected the answer. Is that by mistake? – gunes Jul 02 '21 at 11:45
