Hi Sowjanya,

There’re two ways to get list of users who modified the document.

1. Go to library settings -> versioning settings -> open document version history

2. You can view audit log reports to ensure who modified the document. Here are steps as follows:

(1)Go to Central Administration ->  Manage service applications -> Select Secure Store Service application, and click the properties from the ribbon -> Enable audit and set the number of days to keep audit logs until be purged

(2)Go to sites settings page -> Click the Site collection audit settings -> configure the audit log settings

(3)Go to your library Settings -> Click the Information management policy setting -> Click the content type you want to -> Enable auditing

(4)Go to sites settings page -> Click the Audit log reports -> Click content modifications report, you also can click custom reports to custom your content viewing report.
