a) get rid of aliases
b) if a view contains (deptno, ename, empno, dname), why are you inserting (deptno, ename, empno, dept)?

In other words, something like this *might* work (depending on possible violation of primary key or referential integrity constraints):
insert into v_complex
  (deptno, ename, empno, dname)
   values
  (10, 'sherya', 7668, 'design')

You also have a big problem with your trigger. Just because you are deleting a specific emp, it does NOT mean that you should delete the entire department, which will almost concertedly still be in use.
