How do I delete iMessages app from my iPad
I don’t want iMessage on my iPad. I use iMessage on my iPhone and don’t want my conversations to show on iPad also because it’s used by entire family.

You can inhibit syncing of SMS/MMs Messages from your iPhone to iPad by changing a few settings on your iPhone:
On your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding - set to OFF - and explicitly disable your iPad from the list of devices.
Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging - set to OFF
Also ensure that Messages in iCloud is disabled on both your iPhone and iPad:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > Messages - set to OFF
Also on iPad, sign-out and disable Messages
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > AppleID - tap, then select Sign Out
Settings > Messages > Messages - set to OFF
