I have created new user role 'Host' . now I am trying to show admin menu item ' user' in it . i have googled some code and tried this

$result = add_role(
    'Host',
    __(Host),
    array(
        'read'         = true // Use false to explicitly deny
    )
);


function Host_menu_links(){
    $user = wp_get_current_user();
    if( $user_role == 'Host' ) {
        remove_menu_page('tools.php');
        remove_menu_page('themes.php');
        remove_menu_page('options-general.php');
        remove_menu_page('plugins.php');
    remove_menu_page('edit-comments.php');
    remove_menu_page('page.php');
    remove_menu_page('upload.php');
    remove_menu_page( 'edit.php?post_type=page' ); 
    remove_menu_page( 'edit.php?post_type=videos' );
    remove_menu_page( 'edit.php' );

    }
}


add_action('admin_menu', 'Host_menu_links');

I am trying to give only read permission to it .but it is not assigning any menu page after login as User . I dont want to use plug in . How can I modify code or look for any other function to modify ?

Edit : I have also tried to add add_menu_page()

    function add_admin_menu_links(){
        $user = wp_get_current_user();

        $user_roles = $user-roles;
    $user_role = array_shift($user_roles);

        if( $user_role == 'subscriber' ) {

            /* add_menu_page('Tax Info', 'Tax Info', 'vendor', 'tax-info', 'vendor_tax_info_page');  --option 1 
            add_menu_page('users', 'users', 'subscriber', 'users', 'users.php');
--option 2 
            add_menu_page( __( 'Custom Menu Title', 'textdomain' ),'custom menu','manage_options','users.php','');*/
--option 3 

        }
    }

I have tried 3 options . i tried to get users menu for subcriber role but on clicking user page error come

'You dont have permission to access that Page '

How can i modify it ?

Okay, I give you an answer based on capabilities and not role. You'll find a way to hide it for other role if you want (you have the code in your question). add_menu_page requires some parameters, hook and callback to work : https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_menu_page/

// Here is your hook to add page to the menu
add_action('admin_menu', 'wpse_288671_add_menu_pages');

// This function will add a page to your admin and your admin menu
function wpse_288671_add_menu_pages() {
     add_menu_page(
        __( 'User page title', 'textdomain' ),
        __( 'User','textdomain' ), // It's your menu title
        'read', // This is the capability required to see this, here I use read
        'user_admin_page', // Here is your page slug 
        'wpse_288671_user_admin_page_callback', // Here is your function name to show content
        '', // Here your can add your custom icon URL
        null, // Here your can add the position (int)
    );
}

// This function is the callback used in wpse_288671_add_menu_pages, that's the content of your page
function wpse_288671_user_admin_page_callback() {
?>
<h2>Hey bro ! Can your read this ?</h2>

}

This code will add a menu link "User", with "User page title" page on click for people who have capability "read" (Super Admin, Administrator, Editor, Author, Contributor, Subscriber and your Host). More about role and capabilities on the doc : https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
