Hi @mehul-m-prajapati

I reproduced this issue consistently, tested it in both normal and incognito browsing modes, and reviewed the relevant routing and page components before opening this report.

I would be interested in working on this issue under GSSoC'26 if it is available for assignment.

Thank you.
