    {
        XDocument doc = XDocument.Load("newtest.xml");
       var  updatenode = doc
                    .Descendants("BankName")
                    .Where(item => item.Attribute("BankName").Value == bankname && item.Attribute("TemplateModel").Value == templatemodel)
                    .Select(XandYPosition => XandYPosition.Descendants("XandYPosition").Descendants());

C#

//yor localhost is related to your application
var xelement = XElement.Load("http://localhost:1694/newtest.xml");

var query = (from m in xelement.Descendants("BankName")
             where m.Attribute("BankName").Value == "jinesh" && m.Attribute("TemplateModel").Value == "sam"
             from b in m.Element("XandYPosition").Elements("column")
             where b.Attribute("Name").Value == "ChqDate"
             select b).FirstOrDefault();


if (query != null)
{
       query.Attribute("X").SetValue("1000");
       query.Attribute("Y").SetValue("2000");

}

//Combine by foreach from xelement+queryresult --> new xml (newtest) and newtest.Save("..\\..\\newtest.xml");
