I ve tried many solutions and came up with this   Options and selections of the dropdown are cleared using this only       my-multi option selected   prop  selected   false       my-multi option   remove       But the interface is not updated  So you have to do this      my-multi   multiselect  rebuild       Hence  the final code is      my-multi option selected   prop  selected   false       my-multi option   remove        my-multi   multiselect  rebuild       Suggestions and improvements are welcome
