Thanks Joshua. So you mean to say, when we encode, we should not encode "?" character in the url.

The query string must be separated by a literal ?, not by an encoded ?. Otherwise, there would be no way for a url-path to have a ?, since it would always be interpreted as the start of a query string. So the issue here is with whatever tool is encoding the ?.
