Remove item from session in Razor view when leaving the page

I need to clear an item from System.Web.HttpSessionStateBase.Session when navigate to any page.
This is needed as we have fields that should be cleared when click on navigate-to-page menu item.
Each item has href attribute that calls action method.

When I use sample below it shows an error- Cannot implicitly convert type void to object.

$('.navigate-to-page').on('click', function () {

   // @Session.Remove("ItemToRemoveKey");

});

Edit 1

@Hassen Ch mentioned that you cannot use razor code inside javascript, well, you acutally can!

Code that I currently have:

$('.navigate-to-page').on('click', function () {
    @{
         this.Session.Remove("ItemToRemoveKey");                 
    }
});

The issues that I have now:

1. When I navigate to other pages, no click event is fired, although when I return to previous page, it first fires the action method and the click event.
2. The action method is called first, therefore view model is not up to date.

You can't do it client side.

You might want to define an action and call it via ajax on click
