Describe the Housekeeping
As developers we need to upgrade our python versions to a supported version as Python 3.8 is no longer supported and dependabot will stop working

Makes sense to upgarde all applications to latest version which is 3.13.

Synk has updated some successfully but only updates dockerfile not pipfile.

Blocking issues

Yeah, I am updating it to 3.13. Not 3.14.

Sorry. The description of the story was not right then. "Makes sense to upgarde all applications to latest version which is 3.14." I am changing it to 3.13
