Why do you not use potential transformer?

Your question is rather oddly phrased as, obviously, there are countless ways in which you wouldn't use a potential transformer! It's much easier to explain why you would us a potential transformer. A potential transformer (known outside North America as a 'voltage transformer') is classified as an instrument transformer, which means that its output is used to drive instruments, such as voltmeters and (the voltage coils of) wattmeters, etc., or to provide inputs to protective relays. It's function is twofold: (1) to reduce the high voltage of the circuit to which its primary winding is connected to a lower voltage which can be 'read' by a voltmeter, etc., and (2) to electrically-isolate its secondary circuit from the primary circuit for the purpose of safety.

Is there any possibility of making a Transformer function as a CT IF Yes how could it be made. Please explain clearly?

Theoretically, yes. But, in practise, probably not! The main thing to understand about a current transformer is that its primary winding is always connected in series with a circuit's load, rather than in parallel with its supply and, so, must be capable of handling the circuit's load current which will be very much larger than the primary current of a regular 'voltage' transformer.
