Enable the frontend template hints path and check which file is called for the related product list.

If the file is from the theme then edit it and if the file is from Magento's default items.phtml then override that file into your theme.

Example : vendor\magento\module-catalog\view\frontend\templates\product\list\items.phtml

like: app/design/[yourtheme]/[themeName]/frontend/Magento_Catalog/templates\product\list\items.phtml

and use the below line for short description :

$_item->getData('short_description');

Hello @mamunbpaul2dca 

Check which file is called for the related product list after enabling the frontend template suggestions path.

If indeed the file is from your theme, change it; if the file is from Magento's default items.phtml, replace it with your theme's version.

Only Magento Open Source users can add product descriptions in the editor.

1. In edit mode, open the product.
2. Expand the Content area by scrolling down. Content of the product.
3. Fill in the product's Short Description and format it as appropriate.
4. Enter the primary product description and format it as needed with the editor toolbar.
