Vim nnoremap creates `n <Esc> * <<_`

Hi for some reason when I create a binding nnoremap <c-[> <<_ it creates additional normal mode bindind which looks like n <Esc> * <<_ in :nmap, which results in shifting lines indent every time when I press Escape key in normal mode. I did not map Esc binding it sort of commes as side effect of nnoremap <c-[> <<_ as if I comment out this line strange behaviour disappears if I source $MYVIMRC file with the commented line it does not remove the Esc binding I have to exit and open nvim in order for this to take effect. Do you know what could be causing this?

Thanks in advance.

Control-[ is Esc. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character:

27 (escape, ESC, \e (GCC only), ^[). Introduces an escape sequence.
