Quoted from Android Studio's doc:
Android Studio supports HTTP proxy settings so you can run Android Studio behind a firewall or secure network.
You need to fix the Proxy Settings in Android Studio. From Android Studio's Documentation Site, I am Sharing the process.
- From the menu bar, click File > Settings (on a Mac, click Android Studio > Preferences).
- In the left pane, click Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > HTTP Proxy. The HTTP Proxy page appears.
- Select Auto-detect proxy settings to use an automatic proxy configuration URL for the proxy settings or Manual proxy configuration to enter each of the settings yourself.
- Click Apply or OK for your changes to take effect.
I hope it helps. Thanks.

Like @SouravOni's answer suggests, this is definitely a network issue. The Dartlang server obviously has issues with restricting certain countries.
The fastest way to solve this is by connecting via a VPN. In my case, I use a Kaspersky Antivirus that comes with a VPN , all I had to do was change my location to United Kingdom and then it works
One way to test if this is a connection issue that needs VPN is to visit pub.dartlang.org, if it doesn't go through, then try a VPN
