Thanks for the comments. I changed the patch to use the string
preparation in below fashion. Attaching the v5 patch. Please let me
know if there are any further inputs.

+                if (missingattcnt == 1)
+                    appendStringInfo(&missingattsbuf, _("\"%s\""),
+                                     remoterel->attnames[i]);
+                else
+                    appendStringInfo(&missingattsbuf, _(", \"%s\""),
+                                     remoterel->attnames[i]);
