🛡️ Feature Request: Add helmet and hpp Middleware

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

The project does not currently use helmet or hpp middleware. This can leave the application exposed to:

• ⚠️ Missing secure HTTP headers (risks like XSS, clickjacking, MIME sniffing).
• ⚠️ HTTP Parameter Pollution attacks (duplicate query parameters bypassing validation).

Describe the solution you'd like:

✅ Use security middleware (helmet and hpp) to improve protection of the application.

Describe alternatives you've considered:

❌ No strong alternatives without adding additional complexity.

Additional context:

🔒 Adding such middleware is a common best practice in Node.js/Express projects to harden security.

@100NikhilBro For this, I'm going to upgrade the BE using TS and organized it to make it scalable. So wait for it

Hi @Avdhesh-Varshney,
I wanted to let you know that I’m eager to continue contributing. I had paused due to exams, but now I’m ready to resume. Also, I wanted to ask if the issues I raised earlier can be addressed later, once the backend is updated from JavaScript to TypeScript.

[Avdhesh-Varshney]

Yes you can continue with those 2 issues. I'll update them in typescript but right now not able to assign this
