ERROR: catalog is missing 3 attribute(s) for relid 150243

Hi lists,

I have an index anomaly on a table; getting the error as subject.

dumping queries behind \dS+ of a table, got 4 queries (see detail below)
1st query --> OK
2nd query --> OK
3rd query ERROR same as subject (ERROR: catalog is missing 3 attribute(s)
for relid 150243)

comment on 3rd query line --pg_catalog.pg_get_indexdef looks good.
so my assumption we have an issue when call pg_catalog.pg_get_indexdef
function.

select pg_catalog.pg_get_indexdef ( 150243, 0, TRUE );
return blank.

any ideas?

1st query:
