sudo apt upgrade command always fails on the first try with "Connection timed out" but resumes after re-trying

The error being displayed is: 

Err:1 http://ppa.launchpad.net/tista/adapta/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 adapta-gtk-theme all 3.94.0.1-0ubuntu1~bionic1            
  Connection timed out [IP: 91.189.95.83 80]
E: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/tista/adapta/ubuntu/pool/main/a/adapta-gtk-theme/adapta-gtk-theme_3.94.0.1-0ubuntu1~bionic1_all.deb  Connection timed out [IP: 91.189.95.83 80]
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

When I sudo apt upgrade my box, sometimes the download of any individual file stops, the download speed indicator in the right side vanishes and then it takes at least a minute or two to display the error above.

This happens most of the times especially when the download size is a bit on the bigger size(>11MB). The interesting part is that when I enter the command to upgrade again, it resumes from where it stopped and finishes it successfully. More logs are in the comments below.

upgrade apt 18.04
