Admin -> Forum -> Boards -> Settings -> Enable recycling of deleted topics: {check} -> Board for recycled topics: {select your desired recycling board} -> Save

Note that this will only recover deleted threads in the future; threads that were deleted in the past cannot be retrieved without a forum backup.

is it advisable for me to create a particular board where deleted thread will go but wait that board should not be visible to members i think so or what's your idea.

Create a new board specifically for it, and when you create the new board, untick all the groups except maybe your moderators (admins can always see the board).
