How do I strip HTML markup or use plain text in the body field? I am using a view to create a block that display a set of data. The data appears as expected, but it shows HTML markup between body fields, which I want to strip or render as they are like in nodes. I am using hook_views_pre_render(), but I am not able to strip HTML markup with that.

How can I achieve this? Is there any view settings for removing HTML markup?
I was using Aggregation (Group Results Together) which caused body field to print the unrendered HTML which is fixed by checking the Format option in additional fields to true.
