I read this answer, It explains how a multi-byte character exploit works in a decent way, the only way I could think of avoiding this problem is whitelisting all single-byte characters because of the fact, as D.W. mentioned in the linked answer, that

there are also multi-byte sequences that the database might decode as a single quote, and that do not contain the 0x27 byte or any other suspicious byte value. As a result, standard quote-escaping functions may fail to escape those quotes.

Can anyone suggest some other way to tackle this problem?

Parameterized queries solve this problem as it separates the parsing of the query from the handling of user supplied data.
