The first sentence in the documentation describes the reason for this behavior

Could it be that the field type of roleid is not integer but Hro_role? Then you need to store a Hro_role in there, not only some number. BTW, in your code the drop down will always show the first item selected because of the value set to 1.
Hi Gangadhar,
You need to convert the variable used in save Into to integer as in your code snippet as it will store the index value of the selected choice.
You are hard coding the selection to the first choice by giving value as 1.
