Since you're not really speaking HTTP when you send data without headers or

it will assume the server will close the connection to signal end of data.
And until it does so, it will wait.
*Reply:* Thanks for the inputs Daniel, so as you said, it will be waiting
for Server to send Connection:Close token???
No. It will quite literally wait for the connection to be closed. Killed.
Stopped. Wiped out.
in my sequence diagram rather than sending HTTP OK Response with
"Connection:KeepAlive" if I send HTTP OK Response with "Connection:Close"
token, will it come out of the waiting state?????? If not, then how will it
wait for the connection close from the server.
Your server should send proper HTTP back when libcurl sends a HTTP request.
Preferably a HTTP 1.1 compliant response, as then libcurl can stop receveing
nicely without the connection having to get closed.
