This is a common request from the Our team if we can freeze the "Description" field.

Since we are facing multiple instances where the Teams have changed the Jira description even after the Development is completed

Hello @Yash Pradhan , 

Welcome to the Community!

I don't think that there is an feature available at this point in Jira that can lock or Freeze any fields. 

Going through your concern and use case , I believe you can restrict the edit of the issue by revoking Edit issue permission from projects to the users who are supposed not to make any changes. 

To do so please follow steps: 

Project settings > Permissions> Edit Permission > make desired changes on "Edit issue" and update it. 

Please try this out and let us know if it serves your purpose.

Have a great day!
