Updating cucumber-java from 1.2.4 of info.cukes's to 4.2.2 of cucumber.io throwing import Given(Or When/Then) cannot be resolved error

Question

As part of update, I had to migrate from info.cukes's cucumber-java with version 1.2.4 to io.cucumber's cucumber-java with version 4.2.2, but the code which ran successfully with older version of cucumber started throwing error, which says The import cucumber.api.java.en.Given(Or When/Then) cannot be resolved

Below is the cucumber class from where execution is starting

    {
     @RunWith(Cucumber.class)
     @CucumberOptions(features = "classpath:features/functional/",
     glue = {"com.jacksparrow.automation.steps_definitions.functional" },
     tags = { "@guest_search_in_progress" },
     plugin = { "pretty","json:target/cucumber-json/cucumber.json",
     "junit:target/cucumber-reports/Cucumber.xml", "html:target/cucumber- 
     reports"},
     strict = false,
     dryRun = false,
     monochrome = true)
      public class FunctionalRunCuke {
     }

    <artifactId>cucumber-junit</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.3</version>

<dependency>
    <groupId>junit</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
