            if (Request.Url.ToString().Contains("printreportingchart.aspx"))
            {
                lblEmpNumber.Style.Add("display", "none");
                lblEmpNumber1.Style.Add("display", "none");

        protected void btnEncryptNIN_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                string name = "s";
            }

It sounds like the Click event is not wired up to the control btnEncryptNIN server control. There are a couple of ways to solve this. You can add AutoEventWireup="true" as an additional attribute to the <%@ Control %> on the first line of the ascx file. OR you can add the line btnEncryptNIN.Click += BtnEncryptNIN_Click; into the Page_Load method in the ascx.cs code behind file
