Is this correct?

We shall now describe the process whereby the plan of the process is effective.

which is supposed to mean:

We shall now describe the process through which the plan of the process has the intended effects.

The process has the same effects as the plan of the process in the end.

Is this alright or any mistake? Why is it not correct?

Plan is "killing someone" by "leading him in a desolate place and stabbing him by surprise".

The process involved is "shoot him with a gun"

The intended effect is "the person dies"

The intended effect of the plan is "death to the person" killing a person result in the same effect.

I would say The intended effect is 'the person dies'. You said exactly that, too.

One flaw is that if the plan is to stab him, shooting him is not part of the process.

Sorry, I couldn't resist teasing a bit.

But like Clive, I'm not sure exactly what you want to say.

The intended effect of our plan is that [the person dies] [the person is dead].

What else do you want to write?

We shall now describe the process whereby the plan of the process is effective.

But is the above correct? Some people say it is not. However, they didn't bother explaining why they thought so.

The phrase "the plan of the process" doesn't really make sense.

We will now describe the process that will effectively accomplish the plan.

To effectively accomplish the plan, we will follow this process.

It really doesn't mean much to me. It sounds like your talking round in circles.
