[Python] Why entry fields of row and column are streching when i generete grid

I am building a simple application in Python using Tkinter where the user can specify the number of rows and columns they want in a grid. Based on the input, a grid of Entry widgets is dynamically generated. However, I am encountering an issue where the Entry widget for column input (used to specify the number of columns) stretches horizontally whenever the number of columns increases.

matrixA=tk.Label(matrix,text="Matrix A Input")
matrixA.grid(row=0,column=2)
#Row Input field
row=tk.Label(matrix,text="Row")
row.grid(row=1,column=0)
row_num = tk.Entry(matrix,width=5)
row_num.grid(row=1,column=1,sticky='nw')


# Column Input field
col=tk.Label(matrix,text="Column")
col.grid(row=1,column=2)
col_num=tk.Entry(matrix,width=5)
col_num.grid(row=1,column=3,sticky='nw')


grid_frame=tk.Frame(matrix)
grid_frame.grid(row=3,column=2,pady=10)
grid_entries = {}
def generate_grid(event=None):
rows_input=row_num.get().strip()
cols_input=col_num.get().strip()
if not rows_input.isdigit() or not cols_input.isdigit():
messagebox.showwarning("Warning", "Input Valid Digit")
rows=int(rows_input)
cols=int(cols_input)
for widget in grid_frame.winfo_children():
widget.destroy()
for r in range(rows):
for c in range(cols):
grid=tk.Entry(grid_frame,width=5)
grid.grid(row=r,column=c,padx=5,pady=5)
grid_entries[(r,c)]=grid
root.bind('<Return>',generate_grid)
