Hello Amit,

There are different options for accomplishing the functionality.

#1: Set the EnableTyping property to "False".

ASPX:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="txtStartDate" EnableTyping="false" runat="server"  Width="180px" >
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

#2: Set the DateInput -> ReadOnly to "True".

ASPX:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="txtStartDate" runat="server" >
    <DateInput ID="DateInput1" runat="server" ReadOnly="true">
    </DateInput>
</telerik:RadDatePicker>
