Changes made to the Python code not reflected on server in Fedora in Virtual Box(Not duplicate)

I have a VM in Oracle virtual box which has Fedora24. I have my python server running (Django). There is no web server like Apache.However, when I make changes to the code the files are getting saved, but the changes are not reflected on the server.

I have to do kill -15 processid of python OR Restart my VM many times to see the changes.

Any idea why this is happening? Have tried clearing the browser caches also.

You failed to provide enough context - like what exactly is "your python server", but anyway, you mention a browser cache so I assume it's a web server process. The point is: Python modules are imported only once per process, and once imported changes to the source files are totally irrelevant. So if you have a long running process, it is expected that you restart the process every time you deploy a new version of your modules.
