Hi Uniyal,
To fill the drop down with the values from back-end,  follow the following stpes.
0.) Create a local context attribute in the view
1.) Bind the drop down to a local context attribute
Then in the wdDoInit() execute the BAPI and write the following code.
ISimpleTypeModifiable myType = wdThis.wdGetAPI().getContext().getModifiableTypeOf("<<u>yourlocalcontextattributename</u>>");
          IModifiableSimpleValueSet values = myType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
IPrivate<viewName>View.I<<u>Elementwhichreturnsthevalue</u> table =  wdContext.current<<u>Elementwhichreturnsthevalue</u>>();
          int i = wdContext.node<u>whichreturnsthevalue</u>().size();
          for (int i = 0;i < maxvalues; i++ )
               IWDNodeElement element = wdContext.node<u>whichreturnsthevalue</u>().getElementAt(i);
               String str = (String)element.getAttributeValue("Username");
               values.put(str, str);
