Why is Stack Creation in AWS Cloud Formation is giving error: "Provisioned Throughput cannot be left blank"?

Stack Creation in AWS Cloud Formation is giving this error:

Provisioned Throughput cannot be left blank

Even though my JSON contains that field?

The template looks fine, but there is a strange character just before My_tabls", it should be ", not “

"TableName": “My_Table",

similar strange character “ in part of GlobalSecondaryIndexes as well.

The template is missing the Provisioned Throughput parameter for the GlobalSecondaryIndexes section:

            "GlobalSecondaryIndexes": [
                {
                    "IndexName": "xyz-index",
                    "KeySchema": [
                        {
                            "AttributeName": "xyz",
                            "KeyType": "HASH"
                        }
                    ],
                    "Projection": {
                        "ProjectionType": "ALL"
                    },
                    "ProvisionedThroughput" : {         <== This bit here
                        "ReadCapacityUnits" : "5",
                        "WriteCapacityUnits" : "5"
                    }
                    ...
