Kota - Add command link visulaforce tag in your visualforce in the action method call your custom controller method to perform update operation and rerender the page to view updated result

Visualforce 
<apex:page controller="yourPagecontroller">
//Other page logic
<apex:commandlink action="{!updateValue}" value="Delete"  rerender="outPanel"/>
<apex:outputpanel id="outPanel">
<!-- Picklist value section -->
</apex:outputPanel>
</apex:page>
Apex controller 
public class yourpagecontroller{
 public Account acc {get;set;}
 public pageReference updateValue(){
   //write your logic to update value
   acc.picklistValue__c = 'setvalue';
   update acc;
 }​
}

Hii Kota,
You can try the following code for updating the picklist value on the button click.
Following is the controller and the page.
----------Controller------------ 
public class custompicklistcls {

    public String Selectthecountry {get;set;}
    public String Selectthecity {get;set;}
    boolean boo;
    
    public custompicklistcls()
    {
    boo=false;
    }
    
    public list <SelectOption> getcountry()
    {
        list <SelectOption> opt= new list <SelectOption>();
        if(boo == false)
        {
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('','select'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('India','India'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('US','US'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('UK','UK'));
        }
        else
        {
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('','select'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('India','India'));
        }
        return opt;
    }
    
    public list <SelectOption> getCity()
    {
        list <SelectOption> opt= new list <SelectOption>();
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('','select'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('Kanpur','Kanpur'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('Noida','Noida'));
        opt.add(new SelectOption ('Ghaziabad','Ghaziabad'));
        return opt;
    }

    public void myDelete(){
            boo=true;    
    }
}
