Hi Geert,

Thanks for your reply. As suggested I replaced the braces with double quotes

 LabDescription:"Machine engineering"

Please find the output of search:parse

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<cts:word-query qtextpre="LabDescription:&quot;" qtextref="cts:text"
qtextpost="&quot;" xmlns:cts="http://marklogic.com/cts";>
  <cts:text>Machine engineering</cts:text>
</cts:word-query>

It forms a simple word query without applying the
element-constraint-query and returns all records which is not my
requirement.

Regards,
Blessing
