  @Rishi1405 It should be something to do with the delay after which the phone should lock itself up or it is related to "Smart lock".
  

  
  

  Check smartlock settings: Settings > Security & Location > Smart Lock

  Smartlock keeps the device unlocked based on certain conditions such as On body detection, trusted places (based on location), trusted devices (when a Bluetooth device is nearby).
  

  It is very likely that you have enabled one of these settings mistakenly and that's keeping the device unlocked. Generally the Bluetooth one happens because whenever you connect a new Bluetooth device, it throws a notification of you wanna keep the phone unlocked when the BT device is in range.
  

  
  

  Check Lock delay: Settings > Security & Location > Automatically lock
  

  This setting decides how long should the device wait before locking itself after the screen turns off. The default and a safe number is 5 seconds. Ensure that you haven't mistakenly set a larger value.
  

  
  

  Let's see how that goes

  @singhnsk thanks for your reply. I have checked every setting and every mobile setting is according to your answer only. Nothing have been touched . 
  Don't know what to do?.. i think i need to wait for an update.

  To be honest, @Rishi1405, this doesn't seem like a issue which anybody else has faced. So, this shouldn't be targeted in an OS update. I'd recommend that you backup your apps and data and then do a factory reset. That should rule out any chance of a software bug causing your device to not lock.
  

  Also, does this same thing happen when you use power button to lock the device?

  I am facing the same problem. Any lock feature is not working, i set the pattern lock but the camera feature on the lock screen opens the phone gallery.

  I also have the same issue,I guess the power button is damaged, because the screenshot function is not working properly also the phone automatically calls the emergency number.

  Use some third party apps to double tab to lock.

  If you want safe way use Nova Launcher and it's Gesture to lock.

  Thanks
