You can use the following rule to remove query strings fromthe uri /chapter-detail.php

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^$
RewriteRule ^chapter-detail.php$ /chapter-detail.php? [L,R]

Yes, rule is working fine but i did not get any value on that page like:board=12&class=145&subject=maths

After discarding querystrings , you cant get query values as they are not present in the url now.

You can use this

$url=strtok($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"],'?');

This function used to get the url without query string data in the PHP page. but my question is, Can I hide querysting from the url

if you have url as a string then you can use explode("?",Url) function in php
