No Bean Creation when Autowiring HibernateTemplate - spring

Question

I am creating a Spring Application but when I am Autowiring HibernateTemplate and running my application, I am getting BeanCreationException and it could not autowire HibernateTemplate.
Stack Trace :
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'registrationRepository': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: public org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTemplate com.ab.repo.RegistrationRepository.hibernateTemplate; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTemplate] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Repository file where i am autowiring HibernateTemplate, Though i haven't wrote any code inside this class:
package com.ab.repo;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTemplate;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
#Repository
public class RegistrationRepository {
#Autowired
public HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate;
public void registerUser() {
System.out.println("I AM INSIDE OF REPOSITORY");
}
}
