    Go to Codeigniter/application folder
    copy index.html
    and paste it in /public_html
    when someone tries to open /public_html then index.html trigger automatically.
    index.html show “Directory access is forbidden.”

    There is maybe better approach for what you want. Move application and system directories outside public_html and after that just set new paths to those directories in public_html/index.php file that should be:

    $system_path = '../system'; // line 93

    and

    $application_folder = '../application'; // line 110

    In the directories that are off limits to visit from a browser:
    place a .htaccess file containing:

    order deny,allow
deny from all

    But if possible, move those directories outside the document root

    Addendum
    I forgot: for Apache 2.4 the syntax is

    Require all denied

    instead of the 2 lines for older Apache versions
