I want to remove index.php/

example.com/index.php/apple
example.com/fruits/index.php/apple
example.com/fuits/apple/index.php/ripen
example.com/index.php

in any of the above cases, I need the url to be redirected by removing index.php/

I tried

RewriteEngine on 
RewriteBase / 
RewriteRule ^index.php/(.*) /$1 [R=301,L]

But it only works for the first case from the given urls above.
