“%20” changing to “+” when passing URL from visualforce page

I am passing URL from Visualforce page as below:

<div class="buttonbox"> <a href="{!communityPrefixe}/Web_LatestNews_LTG?tags=Glass%20School&thematicPage=1">{!$Label.HomePackagingGlass} </a> </div>

The URL should redirects as below:
https://vaqual1-verallia.cs86.force.com/Web_LatestNews_LTG?tags=Selective%20Line&thematicPage=1
But, In the URl "%20" replaced by "+" as below:
https://vaqual1-verallia.cs86.force.com/Web_LatestNews_LTG?tags=Selective**+**Line&thematicPage=1
Can anyone give suggestions on this, Thanks.
