Hi Sourav,
To fix bugs, you just need an account at redhat.bugzilla.com. You can
then search for bugs, see if you know how to fix them, submit patches
and more. You could look at the QA team's documentation[1] for a
complete workflow.
Please note that fedora is "downstream", that is, we take software from
developers ("upstream") and package it to our users. If you're really
interested in bug fixing, you'd be better of working with upstream
directly. This will ensure that all of upstreams users receive your
fixes, and not just fedora. Fedora package maintainers will in-fact send
your fixes upstream, in accordance with our policy of staying in close
contact with them[2]
PS: cc'ing the join list so everyone can benefit from the thread :)
