Accepted answer
yes you can add token to header section.

it is possible to pass authentication token along with get method ?

Try this
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(URL);
request.Method = "GET";
request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
((HttpWebRequest)request).UserAgent = "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 7.1; Trident/5.0)";
request.Accept = "/";
request.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
request.Proxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
dataStream.Close();

try
{
    WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
    dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
    StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
    responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
    //Console.WriteLine(responseFromServer);
    reader.Close();
    dataStream.Close();
    response.Close();
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(new StreamReader(ex.Response.GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd());
}
where postData is the json format of your parameter.

Previous version
var client = new RestClient("http://localhost/api/check-val");
client.Timeout = -1;
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
var body = @"{
" + "\n" +
@"    ""name"": ""Amit"",
" + "\n" +
@"    ""address"": ""India""
" + "\n" +
@"}";
request.AddParameter("application/json", body, ParameterType.RequestBody);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);
New Version V107 with .Net 6.0
var client = new RestClient("http://localhost/api/check-val");
var request = new RestRequest(url, Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
var body = new
{
    name = "Amit",
    address = "India"
};
var jbody = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(body);
request.AddBody(jbody, "application/json");
RestResponse response = await client.ExecuteAsync(request);
var output = response.Content;
