Links are opening in a new tab/window by default from my web application

All links are opening in a new tab/window from my web application. I tested from Chrome and Firefox, same behavior for both. I can't debug it. can anybody tell me the possible reasons and ways to debug it?

I am not using any target="blank" with the links, also I confirmed that no script is adding it to the DOM dynamically.

Thanks in advance.

Finally found the issue.

Inside the head tag, I was written another tag like,

<base href="/" target="_blank">

which defaults all links to open in target="_blank". If I say target="_self" the issue goes away.
