I'm developing a chatting application where we have deployed the eJabberd on server and using smack library client for android. Now the problem is i was not able to get the previous chat history to show. Please help me out in getting the chat history.

Giving more details is important because there is several things that could be called "history" in XMPP. – Mickaël Rémond Mar 22 '16 at 15:49

Chat history (latest x messages) are retrieved as defined in XEP-0045 Multi-User Chat. Message Archive are retrieved as defined in XEP-0313 Message Archive Management. Use one of those specifications.

@shuvro Yes you can get message history between two users. As I explained: Query the Message Archive. – Mickaël Rémond Nov 15 '16 at 07:50
