Solution 2

to get master page control we need to get the control first and then used it

C#

var dropdown=(DropDownList)Master.FindControl("MDDL_Dept");
            if (dropdown != null)
            {
                //you code
                string yourvalue = dropdown.SelectedValue;
            }

can you provide the code what you have written ,
I get the master page control in my page by using the same code that I have provided to you in my solution .
Pageload what you are pointing out is the pageload event I guess so you need to that code inside pageload event like
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var dropdown=(DropDownList)Master.FindControl("MDDL_Dept");
if (dropdown != null)
{
//you code
string yourvalue = dropdown.SelectedValue;
}
}
