NO, web apps don't have access to local machine registry.
Any malicious web app would be able to hijack the local machine and lock out the legitimate user.
And web apps can't launch arbitrary apps nor have access to local HDD.
I know it is boring, it is a silly thing named security.

You can't do this.

Web applications have no access to the client machines resources, such as the file system and registry. Think about it. If a web site had access to the registry on client machines, that would be a MASSIVE security risk.

Since you made no attempt to describe what registry operations you're trying to perform in what part of the registry, it's pretty much impossible for anyone to suggest anything that would be a better solution.

Registry operations like create , delete, modify -> keys , subkeys and their values etc.
Can i do these operations from asp page developed in visual studio for these operations??

Like I already said, in a web application, no, you can't.
