if you are doing it with ajax,then Try this,

var name = jQuery(".input_text").val();//make sure you have used 'input_text'for this input element only
jQuery.ajax({
            type:"POST",
            data:{vat_exempt_name:name},//see ajax syntax for remaining

The above code can help you to pass params as post to any controller.

instead using jquery you can getting value of an element with simple javascript as, var name = document.getElementById('input_field_id').value;

Magento – Fix Adminhtml Redirection Issue from Controller

When redirecting * means current, so with $this->_redirect('*/*'); you are targeting the current module, current controller and index action. As I see a closing ?> in your controller (which by the way you should exclude, see here) I'm going to assume you have no more actions in that controller, including the index action, therefore the redirect fails in a 404 because the action does not actually exist.

You need to redirect to the adminhtml module, sales_order controller and view action instead so use the following:

$this->_redirect('adminhtml/sales_order/view', array('order_id' => $someorderid));

Magento 2 – How to Call Function in PHTML File from Parent Block

With this code you create this block and render it immediately, without adding it to the layout hierarchy. That means it doesn't have access to the parent block because there is no parent.

To create a block dynamically as child of the current block, use:

$child = $this->getLayout()->createBlock("Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template")->setTemplate("Namespace_Module::state.phtml");
$this->addChild('state', $child);

And to render it:

echo $this->getChildHtml('state');

(I used "state" as alias here, but it can be anything else)

Now you have access to the parent from your state.phtml template, using $this->getParentBlock()

If I set state.phtml in country.phtml like
<?php
echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock("Namespace\Module\Block\Country")->setTemplate("Namespace_Module::state.phtml")->toHtml();
?>
Then Is it possible to call functions of Country.php in State.phtml file ?

If you insist, you can do it like this:

 echo $this->getLayout()
     ->createBlock("Namespace\Module\Block\Country")
     ->setTemplate("Namespace_Module::state.phtml")
     ->setData('country_block', $this)
     ->toHtml();

And then, in state.phtml:

$this->getData('country_block')->METHOD_OF_COUNTRY_BLOCK();
