Answer

Gas molecules are close to each other under high pressure. Due to this, intermolecular forces such as van-der-wall forces (dispersion and dipole dipole moment), hydrogen bonding (in polar gases with Hydrogen), etc develop between gas molecules. These forces makes the gases deviate from the ideal law.
