See

In short, it's the runtime environment that loads, verifies, compiles
and executes your maanged code. In addition to that it handles code
access security, garbage collection and a bunch of other features.

CLR is the Execution Engine for Microsoft .NET, it provides the meaning to
what .NET offers.

As CLR is known as Common Language Runtime, means it is common among all the
..NET compliant languages(VB .NET,C#,C++ .NET,J# etc).

It also helps in memory management, type safety, JIT Compilation etc.
