@Vahid any specific reason for removing slash from json? What particular functionality are you looking to achieve? — Mohsin Mehmood, May 28 '18 at 07:59
i created a web API. I need to get json in proper format as a result of this function. But what i am getting is look like this. _"{\"ID\":\"3411\",\"AccessCardNo\":\"123569\",\"DP_EmpID\":\"63\",\"EmpOfficialID\":\"EMP020\",\"emp.DP_Degree\":\"710\",\"emp.DP_DepartmentID\":\"699\",\"emp.DP_EmpFname\":\"Feras\",\"ActualDepartureDate\":\"01/01/2099\",\"EmpStatus_HR\":\"Reserved\"}"_ — Vahid, May 28 '18 at 08:44
Is this what the web browser is showing you or are you seeing this in the debugger ? Check this link also https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20312974/newtonsoft-json-serializeobject-without-escape-backslashes — Storm, May 28 '18 at 09:33

In your json string two thing is wrong. Json starts with " and ends with " First trim these double quotation. Then replace \\. Like

string outputjson=JSONresult.Trim('"');
outputjson = JSONresult.Replace("\\", "");

Try this code:

public string GetEmployeeDetails(string AccessCard)
    {
        DataTable dt =GetEmployeeByAccessCard(AccessCard);
        if (dt.Rows.Count>0)
        {
            string result= Convert.ToString(dt);
            string JSONresult = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(result.Replace("\\", ""));
            return JSONresult;
        }
        else
            return "No Data found";

    }
