Please identify this plant and check its leaves also. Why they are declining downwards.

Micro pets are looking like mites and IMHO shift the second plant to some shaded location.

they are looks like spider mites. Dangerous pest of home plants. they suck the sap of plants from the leaves. There population multiply very fast. Leaves gets yellow due to the heavy feeding and then dry out.

Increase the water application, keep the plant in shade and feed ur plant.
Forcefully spray of water to wash away the insects and their webs. do it every 3 days interval.
spray multiple application of neem oil diluted in luke water, 1 teaspoonful with 1 liter water.
u also can use insecticidal soap.
In Inorganic try Bayer's "Oberon". Pyrethrine, Malathian or dimethoate spray.

Hope this help u.
