Model:
public function getSearchResult($query){
$params = [
'query' => $query,
];
// Prepare statement
$search = $this->db->row("SELECT id, p_name FROM product WHERE p_name LIKE :query", $params);

return $stmt;
}
public function row($sql, $params = []){
$result = $this->query($sql, $params);
return $result->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

You can add % in your array value. Change your model code like below:
public function getSearchResult($query){
$params = [
':query' => '%'.$query.'%', // change this line
];
// Prepare statement
$search = $this->db->row("SELECT id, p_name FROM product WHERE p_name LIKE :query", $params);
return $search;
}
