You can't stop the user form doing this, there are lots of ways to get the html besides view->source.

means we can't do anything to avoid this encryption or else? if there is select query then my table name name column are visible to attacker.

Don't put select queries in your html then. Just bear in mind everything in the html is visible.

No, because ASP.NET code (C#) runs entirely on the server, never the client. ASP.NET code just generates HTML pages and sends that to the client, complete with any CSS files, other content, client-side script files (javascript), ...

THe only "source" the browser gets to see are the files that are sent to the browser in order to render and interact with the page, HTML, CSS, javascript, ... NEVER the *.cs files.
