Hi Rosalin - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Jira does that with all fields that don't have a value. The only way to get rid of it is to make the field mandatory, which you don't want to do because then you would have to check it every time to save it. 

The other option would be to add Values of Yes and No with a No as default and make the field mandatory to get rid of the None.

Hi @Rosalin Kandapan and welcome to the community!

I understand that you have created the field as a custom field? Are you using a Team managed project or a Company managed project? 

If you are using a Company managed field then you can change the default setting

Go to Work Items -> Fields -> Fields and look up your field. Click on the three dots to the right and choose Contexts and default values

The field type should look like this:

The dedault value should be set to
