Amit,
If you are trying to handle form redisplay you may want to look at
the Turbine Sample application called Antelope at http://zebra.tigris.org/ -
this sample has a form library to do just what you describe.

> context doesnot have the key for first dropdown selection anymore.

> In HttpServlet I would just put the selection in the session
