Dear Adrian and Alban,

Thanks for the suggestions.
I revisited the entire tables, triggers related to the tables. I did not
find anything strange.
But, I removed all the rows from the* *cf_user_question_link and
inserted relevant rows into the table from *cf_question*.


Also, I recreated the function without the update and deployed it.
Now the trigger function works as expected ( when a new row is inserted
into the *cf_question*, a row with necessary fields is inserted into
the cf_user_question_link table)

Though now the trigger function works as expected but the issue that I
faced was it because there were rows already in the cf_question table
before the trigger function was deployed ?

Not really, the issue, as Alban pointed out, was you had UPDATE in the trigger statement. So every time you did an UPDATE to cf_question you got an INSERT into cf_user_question_link. So I suspect somewhere/somehow you did 3 UPDATES to all the rows in cf_question while you had the old trigger statement deployed.


regards
Kiran

    I'm fairly confident that the duplicates are from updates on the
    cf_question table. Since the trigger also fires on update and then
    inserts another record, that would explain the duplication pretty
    well.

    Nevertheless, if there are other triggers those bear investigation.
