    <p>Hi Ashish,</p>
    <p>To keep it simple, one PIT entry represents a pending Interest,
      which guides Data forwarding. One router may receive Interests
      with the same name from multiple different downstreams. On
      receiving the Data that can satisfy these Interests, the router is
      able to multicast the Data to all the downstreams sending the
      Interests. PIT entry's in-record represents the face to
      downstream, and each in-record has an expiry timer (=Interest
      lifetime). PIT entry itself has a different expiry timer that is
      refreshed by the latest PIT in-record expiry timer (code:

    </p>
    Chapter 3.4 in NFD developer guide explains more details about PIT

    <br>
    <p>For you scenario, one hack that may work is to remove the expiry
