Hi @richaagarwal, Unlike some other projects, we don’t require PRs to have a corresponding issue open - the PR itself can serve as a problem report, that just happens to have a proposed solution attached. In this case, the existing PR #4567 had a more complete description of the problem and some further discussion, so it would be counter-productive to have another issue open covering the same ground.

Does it make sense to close this issue if the PRs in question have not been approved or merged?
