Any Comment/suggestion is very big help, Thank you in advance. . .
Judging from your photos it seems to me to be a spurt of growth from bringing the plants to more desirable conditions.
They were kept in a cool basement for a period of time which changes the growth cycle

The leaves just can't get out of the way fast enough for the new leaf.

For me choking involves dead tissue blocking the growth of a new leaf in the pstem.

I do not see any symptoms like that on your plant and it is pushing a new leaf.
Sometimes new leaves will just push a few inches then stop when conditions change.
Looks somewhat normal and like a few of my plants

Here are my choke symptoms and what it looks like in the stem

Choke
Another choke
