I tried different script its working now, hope this will help to others,

Ui Action script _

function rejectAnalysis(){
if (g_form.getValue('u_explanation') == '') {
// Remove any existing field message, set comments mandatory, and show a new field message
try {
g_form.hideFieldMsg('u_explanation');
} catch(e) {}
g_form.setMandatory('u_explanation', true);
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_explanation', getMessage('Please provide the explanation '), 'error');
g_form.addErrorMessage('Please enter comments in the Explnanation ');

return false; // Abort submission
}
// Call the UI Action and skip the 'onclick' function
gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'reject_quality'); // MUST call the 'Action name' set in this UI Action
}

// Ensure call to server side function with no browser errors
if (typeof window == 'undefined')
serverReopen();

function serverReopen() {
// Set Incident state to active, update and reload the record

current.u_quality_state = 4;
current.update();
gs.addInfoMessage(gs.getMessage("Quality Analysis Submitted."));
action.setRedirectURL(current);
}

Great!  It looks like you marked your own response as the correct answer, which may be confusing to others that read this later.

I felt I covered that above pretty well (first) and included the script which pointed you in right direction on combination of client+server side code
