Thanks Jack for your response. The following jira bug for this issue is already present so I have not created a new one. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8812
Kindly help me understand that whether it is possible to achieve search on ORed terms as it was done in earlier Solr version. Is this behavior intentional or is it a bug? I need to migrate to Solr-5.5.0 but not doing so due to this behavior.
