How to reproduce the issue?

Step 1: Open the above URL in New Edge/Chrome browsers with valid credentials.

Step 3: Navigate on the page using keyboard tab key.
Step 4: Verify whether Keyboard focus is moving to the start of the page after invoking any control in the page or not.

What do you expect?

Keyboard focus should not move to the start of the page after invoking any control in the page.
Ex: Keyboard focus should land on the next interactive control which occurs after invoking the first menu item under the questions section (i.e. What is contribution program) Or on the whole section which appears after performing action on control.

What actually happened?

Keyboard focus jumps to the start of the page after invoking any interactive control in the message area of the bot.
Observation: For example, we invoke the first menu item under the questions section (i.e. What is contribution program) then keyboard focus is moving to the starting of the page.
