Session Class has two methods. Session.Abondon() and Session.Clear().
Both the methods are used to clear the data in the session. Both the
methods clear the data in the session.

No, they don't. Session.Clear removes the session variables, but
Session.Abandon doesn't remove anything at all from the session, it only
flags the session object to be abandoned after the request has been handled.
But there is one difference between them. Session.Abondon() will
Session_end event will be fired and session_start event will be fired
on the next request.

Yes, of course. Abandoning the session will end it, and the next request
will start a new session. Clearing the session variables doesn't end the
session.
