Template engine escaping html default. You have to filter it with safe tag when you showing.

{{ description |safe }}

or use autoescape tag

{% autoescape off %}{{ description }}{% endautoescape %}

@devdap You need to be careful when you say it should be in your view. View in Django is equivalent to Controllers in other frameworks. So I would say "it should be in your template i.e. template.html"
