Here is my code which I tried to get description but I am not getting proper response. As I search, someone gave me suggestion to make following function in function.php but it still not working.

remove_filter('acf_the_content', 'wpautop' );

Here is my code

<?php echo get_field( "category_description", 'category_'.$cat_id ); ?>

Kindly hint me where is the issue? How I get proper response. Thanks in advance.
