Do we need to analyze a table after indexing ?
we observed that an already analyzed table had to be
re-analyzed after index creation for index usage .

is it normal behaviour?

I think you must have made a mistake.  Creating an index doesn't
touch pg_statistic.

Doesnt' it mean we shud analyze after index creation so that
statiscs are updated? (as u said creating index does not touch pg_statistics).

No, because the statistics are independent of whether an index exists or
not.  You can do it in either order and get the same results.
