HI Guys,
You all might be wondering how to install WhatsApp web version into your android phones as there is no WhatsApp web in the current installed version of the application.
WhatsApp Web: Its not an alternative to use WhatsApp from web rather using your mobile interface you can use browser for communication. Just open the http://web.whatsapp.com in your chrome (only chrome and for android users ) and make your mobile connected to internet (preferably via WiFi) and you can see all your chats in browser and you can opt to have notifications in your mac and can communicate from there it self. Sounds super awesome to me :).
So to start with- have a good internet connection !!
1. BackUp your conversations if you are already using it (i hope you are!!) !!
Open WhatsApp-->Go to settings --> Chat Settings --> BackUp Conversations
(or else you will loose your today morning conversation as daily backup happens at 4:00 AM in the morning)
2. UnInstall the current version of WhatsApp in your android phone.
Don't worry WhatsApp gives you option to restore all the chats in your phone.
3. Please do not run any app like Clean Master to clean the cache or temp files as they may damage your old chat backup.
4. Install the new version of the WhatsApp from play store, verify your number and then Please Click on Restore conversation .
It will take a while to restore all your chats
And you are good to go !
Disclaimer: I personally tried it and it worked for me like a charm . I shall not be responsible for anything with your data , so try at your own risk !!

After this go to menu option of WhatsApp
(Change your media setting from auto download to manual download if required)
It will ask you to open the URL: https://web.whatsapp.com/
You need to update the Chrome of your Desktop . I am using Mac OS X 10.10.1 and Chrome Version : 39.0.2171.99 (64-bit).
For the users who didn't like this feature and who are trying to remove their whatsapp session from the browser you can log out from all computers from the mobile application itself !
Open WhatsApp --> Click Menu --> WhatsApp Web --> Log Out from all computers !!
