Hello Shivaraj, first you should start a new cad discussion topic of your own not to interfer in the topic of ziggizee33. I will answer to your question ( see below ).
 
Hello ziggizee33, you can download AutoCAD blocks right here in the Cad Forum site int the : CAD Blocks library, you can find what you want ( if available ) with a "search" with words.
 
Shivaraj, you can change your point of view by different ways:
In the menu : View , 3d view points you have a scroll and you can go to the different 2D and 3D point of views.
Are you an AutoCAD 3D beginner ?
It's better not to work in the model space with a 2D viewpoint with 3D objects. 
If it's to set a view in an open viewport in the paper space you can also set a good UCS and then launch the command PLAN to have your view OK with your specific UCS, etc..., ask for more.

zig:

Download the block to your Desktop.  In AutoCAD use the INSERT command then browse to your Desktop to grab the block you downloaded.

Shiv: Are you using the Ribbon or did you retrograde to AutoCAD Classic with Toolbars and drop-down menus?

BTW...what you did re: adding your question to another forum member's thread is called "hijacking" and is not good form.  Avoid doing it again in the future.  Thanks.
