Does that mean (as per this command's manual in the link) "The referenced

..That this command is generating wrong results i mean mix of right and
wrong for objects shown as referred and their libraries names.. it appears
so far to me.

Not wrong. The environment has changed between the time the object was created and now. The program reference information is not dynamic; it is not a model of the system as it now exists. The program reference information is static - it is a model of each object at the moment it was created/updated. Not wrong: different.

And if that is the case then how can we get reference correctly for the
specific Program object which keeps calling multiple programs ?

The answer that many, many, many of us have chosen: Buy a professional cross reference package.

Yes, you can assemble some of this cross reference information from system-provided APIs, utilities, and SQL functionality, but you need to adjust your expectations accordingly.
