You can't do this. Generally it's considered kind of dubious to need
to know when other apps start (i.e., what are you trying to write, an
app that spies on the user?). Presumably you are trying to write some
kind of helper app that provides extra system utilities, this is not
really possible

Why Asynchronous Operations cannot be performed in OnReceive() method
during BroadCast Receiver? Is there any specific reason ?

The class BroadcastReceiver defines the onReceive() method. Only during
this method your BroadcastReceiver object will be valid, afterwards the
Android system can recycle the BroadcastReceiver. Therefore you cannot
perform any asynchronous operation in the onReceive() method.

What action are you receiving? Is it your own custom action or one defined
by Android? If it is a custom action then you would need to figure out why
you are sending the broadcast without extras.
If it is defined by Android, then it may be some other application that

A particular receiver can only process one broadcast at a time. As each
broadcast happens, it is processed to determine the targets it should go
to, and dispatched into the message queue for each target. When a later
broadcast is sent, it will generally not be moved ahead of the queue.
