links are used to navigate to other page then why you are using javascript to navigate? — Pankaj Makwana, Jun 27 '17 at 12:46

You can use

window.open('http://www.mahacareermitra.in','_blank');

or

You can use SetAttribute function in java script.

<a href=""  id="mahacareer">Access the portal</a>

Try this

  document.getElementById("mahacareer").setAttribute("target", "_blank");
