Comment (by Sanskar Jaiswal):

 Upon going through some of the source code, the issue clearly arises
 because we are calling `RemoveField` in the `generate_deleted_models`
 method in `db/migrations/autodetector.py`
 
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/f283ffaa84ef0a558eb466b8fc3fae7e6fbb547c/django/db/migrations/autodetector.py#L707].
 I think calling this method here is redundant as `DeleteModel` should drop
 the table from the database which automatically deletes the related fields
 as well. Can someone confirm my hypothesis or correct me if I am steering
 in the wrong direction?
