Here is the solution

    $("#Partner").keydown(function (e) {

        if (e.keyCode == 90 && e.ctrlKey) {
            e.preventDefault();
            return;
        }
    });

    //key up handles all keypresse events. Backspace wont fire for simple keypress event in jquery
    $("#Partner").keyup(function (e) {

        if (e.keyCode == 90 && e.ctrlKey) {
            e.preventDefault();
            return;
        }

Try this...

$("#Partner").bind("keydown", function (e) {
       if (e.keyCode == 90 && e.ctrlKey) {
           e.preventDefault();
           return;
      }
}

Note: the key operations are performed in the keydown operation also. so try to prevent the keydown event to block the default behavior.
