Make SEO Friendly URL in Php with help of .htaccess

Question

I want to make my URL from this:
https://www.website.com/index.php?title=A1-13-05-2021

to this:
https://www.website.com/A1-13-05-2021

And want to access above query string param in index.php as $_GET['title'].

For this, I have written the below .htaccess code. But that's not working

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index?$ index.php

RewriteRule ^index/([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+) index.php?title=$1

Can anyone please help me to know where I am doing wrong?

Thanks.
