Hi Priyanka,
If you mean you want to keep the pseudobond (the line between the atoms) and just remove the text, then use menu: Tools... Structure Analysis... Distances.  In that dialog, change the Labels setting from "Distance" to "None"

The Distances tool is described here
<https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/structuremeas/structuremeas.html#distances>

Or if you want to remove both the line and the text, then one way is command:

~distance

<https://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/distance.html>

Another way is to use the Distances tool mentioned above: in that tool, click on the row for that measurement and then click the "Remove" button.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
