I have created Sling model which is fetching the root page and its child pages. I added the title and description of all the pages in List.

My bean class is as follows

Items(String title, String description, List<Items>)

I have list of this Items bean class in my sling model and added the content in this list. List<Items> in parameter is for the child pages to be stored in it.

How can I fetch this list values in my HTL code to display it on page using sightly? What will be the code for this?

You would normally expose the list of times with a getter method:

public List<Items> getItems() { ... }

Assuming each items also exposes getters for title and description:

public String getTitle() { ... }
public String getDescription() { ... }

Then you can just use your model:

<ul data-sly-use.myModel="MyModelClass" data-sly-list="myModel.items">
    <li>${item.title} - ${item.description}</li>
</ul>

There are some more examples in the HTL specification.
