Conda install opencv breaks the existing environment with torch and torchvision

So when creating a new environment using conda, I installed pytorch and torchvision using the following command.
conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia

Later when trying to install OpenCV using conda install opencv , it downgrades the torchvision package from 0.17(or a more recent one) to 0.15a which becomes incompatible with latest version of pytorch==2.2.X. I dont know who is responsible to fix this part.
Alternate workaround I found:
Installation of Opencv using Conda install is forcing this downgrade to incompatible versions, the only workaround I could find was to activate the environment and install opencv using pip install.

not an official package, not supported, contact maintainer.

official packages are on PyPI, to be installed with pip, packages named opencv-python (just base modules) or opencv-contrib-python (base + contrib)
