While navigating to the 'Title/Purpose' edit field, Screen reader does not announce the required information. While navigating on it screen reader is announcing as 'Title/Purpose Himanshu Gupta 1/6/2025 edit field Himanshu Gupta 1/6/2025 selected.'

It will impact the screen reader user as they will not be able to know whether the field is required or not due to this there might be a chance that user may skip the mandatory field.
