 * Hi Akash1202,
 * Sorry that you ran into issues here!
 * All fields can be set to be required under Directory Admin->Manage Form Fields.
   Each field can have the option set. This affects the Submit Listing form.
 * If you are trying to make fields on the Search form required, that’s not currently
   an option we have in the settings. Users aren’t required to enter anything in
   the search form at this time. They can just hit the search button and that’s 
   OK.

 * Can you post a screenshot of your Form Fields settings for that field?
 * Also, can you show me a link to the submit listing form where I can test it?
 * Lastly, what version of BD are you running here? If it’s not 3.6.9.1, can you
   upgrade and try again?
