      The main landmark region is not defined on the  Accessibility Assessment - Releases  page.
      As a result, screen reader users might find it difficult to navigate to different sections of the page quickly.

      Expected Results

      Every page must have a main landmark specified.The content present in the main region of the page should be encapsulated under the <main> </main> tags OR role="main" can be provided to the parent <div> element containing the main content so that screen reader users can quickly jump to the main landmark or may skip the main section if needed.
