Link It's a simple problem with a simple solution, But still I'm not able to figure out why is there runtime error on a couple of test cases.

You should change the line
if (s1.size() == s2.size()) return true;
toif (s1.size() == s2.size()) return false;
Check out https://codeforces.me/blog/entry/57036?#comment-406911 for the reason.
Here and on a more practical note here. The second one is more useful, and it describes all of the conditions you need for a valid sorting order in C++. Comparators use a strict-weak ordering, which means that they should satisfy irreflexivity, transitivity, and transitivity of equivalence. Your comparator doesn't satisfy irreflexivity, so it sometimes throws a runtime error.
