I know there are a bunch of similar questions on stackoverflow but none of them seem to solve my problem.
The problems previously mentioned always have some place where the drawable is missing. Which is not the case with this project.
The line number being pointed in error log leads me to this textView which has a 9-patch image as a background
The Layout
<TextView
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:id="@+id/update_available"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_vertical|start"
android:background="@drawable/tab_white_left_9"
android:text="@string/update_available"
android:textColor="@android:color/white"
android:backgroundTint="@color/lead_color"
app:drawableStartCompat="@drawable/ic_download"
android:drawablePadding="@dimen/margin_5"
android:paddingStart="@dimen/margin_5"
style="@style/text_bold_11"
app:drawableTint="@android:color/white"
android:visibility="gone"/>

When similar exceptions were raised for other drawables in this project, I switched to using vector drawables for those images, but this drawable being a 9-patch image cannot be converted to a vector image.
Edit:
Placing a low-res tab_white_left_9 in the default drawable folder /res/drawable solved this issue, still, a better solution for this problem would be appreciated as now there are duplicate drawables present for any particular resolution.
