visual state manager in XAML for UWP is not working - xaml

Question

I am new to UWP development and working on XAML. Can someone tell me what is wrong with the following XAML where visual state is not working. when I resize the window, the values of rows and columns do not change. Also the background color of the stack panel does not change.
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}" Margin="40,0,0,0">
<GridView ItemsSource="{x:Bind Ticket}">
<GridView.ItemTemplate>

To make the VisualStateManager work inside a DataTemplate, we will need to place it within a Control subclass such as a UserControl like the following:
<GridView ItemsSource="{x:Bind Ticket}">
<GridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:DataType="data:Ticket">
<UserControl>
<Grid>
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
...
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
...
</Grid>
</UserControl>
</DataTemplate>
</GridView.ItemTemplate>
</GridView>
Visual states are sometimes useful for scenarios where you want to change the state of some area of UI that's not immediately a Control subclass. You can't do this directly because the control parameter of the GoToState method requires a Control subclass, which refers to the object that the VisualStateManager acts upon.
We recommend you define a custom UserControl to either be the Window.Content root or be a container for other content you want to apply states to (such as a Panel). Then you can call GoToState on your UserControl and apply states regardless of whether the rest of the content is a Control.
For more info, please see Visual states for elements that aren't controls under Remarks of VisualStateManager Class.
