Let's avoid complex sentences. Do you want to send anything without user knowledge?

Actually we don't want user(client) to select file and upload,developers will give the file name and path in code and that should be uploaded automatically from client to server machine.

You can't just go and take a file of the client machine, it doesn't work that way.
You will have to have:
- FileUpload control, where the user selects the file. Or
- An ActiveX installed on the client to send the file. Or
- An exe running on the client to send the file.
browser has nothing to do with client machine. he don't have a knowledge of client machine folder structure / file system.

but you can use Javascript to get client machine file and send it to server using
File.Copy()
