Hi @Diya M ,

JIRA is designed so that issues must be assigned to a single individual to prevent tasks from being overlooked.

However, if you want to assign an issue to multiple users, you can checkout the following link for the available workarounds: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/how-do-i-assign-issues-to-multiple-users-207489749.html?_ga=2.184871787.376833266.1569910779-849482218.1569910779

Maybe a generic user id with an email id that works more like a distribution email list ? You may not be able to mention users individually but I guess a generic with an email id as a distribution list can work as a work around.
