I would look up the difference between witness data and core data in a tx. Segwit let's you put more witness data which leads to the increased block size, my mind isn't liking the phrase "create space" because it sounds like it became more efficient/took up less space but that's not the case. You use extra storage for every block on your bitcoin node since segwit was introduced.

Its still 1 mb block ?

A milllion bytes

Did the block weight increase , instead of the size ?

Am in a loop, thank your for your patience

I am able understand segwith is like a pouch that has the signatures

Does it mean all the signatures of that particular block are in this single pouch? where 1 b = 1 wu ?

We just segregated them and measured it as wu, and now we have more transactions in the block.

But in reality more space on ur hard sisk is being consumed, so how is it still 1 mb block ?

It's not 1mb block anymore

thank you
