Actual Results

When screen reader users navigate through the "Select All Current Watchers", "Select Admin", "Select Chirag Goyal", etc., checkboxes in the "Watchers" table, they observe that these checkboxes are missing associated labels.

These checkboxes are announced by the screen reader as unlabeled, for example, simply as "checkbox, not checked".

This issue occurs because labels are not defined for these checkboxes using the HTML <label> element or the "aria-label" attribute in the source code.

As a result, screen reader users are unable to understand the purpose of these checkboxes.

Expected Results

The screen reader should announce the label for the checkboxes correctly.

In this case, provide the labels as "Select All Current Watchers", "Select Admin", "Select Chirag Goyal", etc., checkboxes using the "aria-label" attribute.

Note: Before implementing labels for the checkboxes, please consult with the content design team to confirm the appropriate business logic.
