    Well in my current wordpress theme some widgets seems to be inbuilt. you can't remove them from widget option in dashboard. I want to remove these, at least Meta and Archives widgets. How to do it ? :(

    Edit the template wp-header.php or whatever is for the header of the web page.

    When you add something to your widgets, they will disappear, or you can just add a blank text box and that will also make them go away.
    It's a default build into most themes to show when the widgets are empty.
