My URL looks like this:

http://kanchannews.com/news/Top-5-Mind-Blowing-Facts-You-Know-About-Samsung

Can I get this kind of url using htaccess? I'm using codeigniter for this projects.

You could probably make your own or download a project from GIThub. Such as: murrion.com/2011/08/… — Adam

This will be done, with CI Routes. The problem you'll have is not having the ID of the post in your URL. If the title is also unique, you'll be fine.

$route['news/(:any)'] = 'news/news_by_title/$1';

This will re-route everything to a "news_by_title" method within your news controller, which you'll need to query the database using the title.
