I am an state government employee. My form 16 is not showing the employer contribution towards Contrbutory Pension Fund (CPS). Will I am eligible to claim deduction under section 80 CCD (2) in my income tax returns

Even if your Form 16 omits your employer’s CPS contribution, you remain fully eligible to claim Section 80CCD(2) deductions in your ITR as long as the contribution was made, provided you verify the amounts using your official NPS/CPS statement and report them manually while filing.
