This is not the right way to read parameters while using command button to bind your action.  All your inputText tags should use value attribute to bind the value to properties in your controller.  For instance,

 

<apex:inputText value="{!email}" id="email"/>

 

Also, make sure that your properties are public first for the value bindings to work.

Thanks , It works.

 

Can i also know how to retrive the data from drop down and check box

If you bind your custom object directly, you can use apex:inputField tag and visualforce will take care of rendering the field according to its type (picklist, checkbox, text etc)
