I got solution

first create the following method in .CS page and call thesse method from ASPX page while binding the data

For implementing this method we use two namespace
> using system.Text.RegularExpression
> using system.Text

C#

public string HTMLToText(string HTMLCode)
        {
            // Remove new lines since they are not visible in HTML
            HTMLCode = HTMLCode.Replace("\n", " ");

            // Remove tab spaces
            HTMLCode = HTMLCode.Replace("\t", " ");

            // Remove multiple white spaces from HTML
            HTMLCode = Regex.Replace(HTMLCode, "\\s+", " ");

            // Remove HEAD tag
            HTMLCode = Regex.Replace(HTMLCode, "<head.*?>", ""
                , RegexOptions.IgnoreCase | RegexOptions.Singleline);

            // Remove any JavaScript
            HTMLCode = Regex.Replace(HTMLCode, "<script.*?>", ""
                , RegexOptions.IgnoreCase | RegexOptions.Singleline);

            // Replace special characters like &, <, >, " etc.
           StringBuilder sbHTML = new StringBuilder(HTMLCode);
            // Note: There are many more special characters, these are just
            // most common. You can add new characters in this arrays if needed
            string[] OldWords = { " ", "&", """, "<", ">", "®", "©", "•", "™" };
            string[] NewWords = { " ", "&", "\"", "<", ">", "Â®", "Â©", "â€¢", "â„¢" };
            for (int i = 0; i < OldWords.Length; i++)
            {
                sbHTML.Replace(OldWords[i], NewWords[i]);
            }

            // Check if there are line breaks (<br>) or paragraph (<p>)
            sbHTML.Replace("<br>", "\n<br>");
            sbHTML.Replace("<br hold=" />            sbHTML.Replace("><p hold=" /><br mode="><[^>]+>", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase); 

            return System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(sbHTML.ToString(), @">", "", System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

        }

Calling above method from ASPX Page

ASP.NET

<asp:label id="lblTrackDescription" runat="server" text="<%# HTMLToText(Eval("Description").ToString())%>" tooltip="<%# (Eval("Description"))%>" xmlns:asp="#unknown" /></p></br></br></br></p></br>
