I will rephrase the above question in hope that other folks on this list
can help Anwesh Tiwari to solve his actual problem rather than tell him
yet again[1] that there is nothing wrong with the ipv6 ACL:

"I expected that using a dst ipv6 ACL with http_access would block IPv4
connections originating from Squid. I now understand that my
expectations were wrong. Please help me refine my goals and configure
Squid to achieve them. Thank you."
