URL structure getting changed when generating the pagination via WP Admin Ajax

Regular URLs of the pagination are like this – https://localhost/projects/page/2/
But when i regenerate the pagination via wp_ajax (admin-ajax.php) pagination becomes a url var like this https://localhost/admin-ajax.php?pages=2, but i’ve managed to convert them into like this – https://localhost/projects?pages=2. Now wanted to know how can i make the urls just like permalink settings? Here is the code function in ajax function –

	$query_args = array(
		'post_type' => 'projects',
		'paged' => $_POST['page'] + 1,
		'post_status' => 'publish',
		'posts_per_page' => 10
	);

	$the_query = new WP_Query( $query_args );

	if(  $the_query->have_posts() ) :
		ob_start();
		while(  $the_query->have_posts() ):  $the_query->the_post();
			include get_template_directory() . '/projects/html/project-card.php';
		endwhile;
		$projects = ob_get_contents();
		ob_end_clean();

		$pagination = wp_pagenavi(array('query' => $the_query, 'echo' => false));
		$pagination = str_replace(admin_url( "admin-ajax.php" ), get_post_type_archive_link( 'projects' ), $pagination);
	endif;

	echo json_encode(
			array(
				'url' => $new_url,
				'projects' => $projects,
				'pagination' => $pagination
			)
		);
	die;

Thank you
