  <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Faith Background:">
                <ItemTemplate>
                       <%#Eval("GroupName")%>
                </ItemTemplate>
                <InsertItemTemplate>
                       <asp:DropDownList id="relig" datasourceid="SqlDataSource1"
                             datatextfield="religion" DataValueField="religion"
                             SelectedValue='<%# Bind("DESCRIPTION") %>' runat="server"/>
                </InsertItemTemplate>
                <EditItemTemplate>
                       <asp:DropDownList id="relig" datasourceid="SqlDataSource1"
                             datatextfield="religion" DataValueField="religion"
                             SelectedValue='<%# Bind("DESCRIPTION") %>' runat="server"/>

  Remove this line SelectedValue='<%# Bind("DESCRIPTION") %>' and insteed of change codebehind

  pageLoad

  
  

  DataView dvProduct = new DataView();
  dvProduct = objcategory.GetCategoryType();//DB call
  ddljobcategory.DataTextField = "CatName";
  ddljobcategory.DataValueField = "CatId";
  ddljobcategory.DataSource = dvProduct;
  ddljobcategory.DataBind();
  ddljobcategory.Items.Insert(0, "Select");
  ddljobcategory.Items[0].Value = "0";
