My concern is about miner's fee, who is taking that amount? Blockchain.info or NBitcoin? I just wanted to confirm whether the library internally uses blockchain.info apis for performing transactions.

Are you referring to the .NET library NBitcoin (https://github.com/MetacoSA/NBitcoin), or something else? Your question is very unclear what it is asking. – Jestin Jul 20 '16 at 14:52

Yes, I m talking about .Net Library NBitcoin. I just wanted to confirm whether this framework internally uses blockchain apis for performing transactions. – Chanchal Bhardwaj Jul 21 '16 at 06:02

By blockchain, do you mean the bitcoin blockchain (the distributed ledger), or the commercial service blockchain.info? – Pieter Wuille Jul 21 '16 at 13:35

I meant Commercial service blockchain.info – Chanchal Bhardwaj Jul 22 '16 at 05:24

Please edit your question to include the information you provided in the comments to clarify it. – Murch Aug 14 '16 at 22:57

I've edited the question to add the information from the comments. However, the question appears to grow from a misunderstanding: libraries and wallet services cannot collect transaction fees. It's always the miners that get the fee. – Murch Aug 19 '16 at 08:58

No, NBitcoin does not use Blockchain.info's API in order to interact with the Bitcoin blockchain. It implmenents the Bitcoin scripting language, network protocol, transaction construction, and other aspects. This allows programmers to use NBitcoin to directly interact with the Bitcoin network.
Since transaction construction is in the hands of the NBitcoin user, transactions can be constructed with whatever miner fees you choose.
