You can add hidden field using string.Format in your controller action

columns.Add(new WebGridColumn() { Header = "", Format = (item) => {
    return new HtmlString(  string.Format("<input type="+"hidden"+" value="+"Poll"+" id="+"Mode"+" />   ) );

and use a strongly typed helper in your view:

@Html.HiddenFor(x => x.ColumnName, new { id = "ColumnName" })

You can do one thing to support legacy browsers. You could use jQuery to apply a hidden style to the header and the rows of the first column or to simply hide them directly.

$(function () {
    $('table th:first-child, table td:first-child').hide();
});
