Hi @Sangita_Nalkar
We always release the Debian packages right away after the release on Github. 1.25.1 was released to Debian on November 8th. We can see here that 1.25.1 is currently in the Debian testing distribution
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mongo-c-driver
You can also see it in Fedora packages
