Hi Satheesh,
Can you please try the below one?
This I have used, in the .get.js file.


var currentDate = new Date().toISOString();

//Create the form control for the student
var formControls = [{
      name : "alfresco/forms/controls/DojoValidationTextBox",
      config : {
         name : "alf_destination",
         value : alfDestination,
         visibilityConfig : {
            initialValue : false
         }
      }
   },
   {
      name : "alfresco/forms/controls/DojoDateTextBox",
      config : {

         label : "Student Registration Date",
         value : currentDate,
         name : "prop_cm_studentRegistrationDate",
         requirementConfig : {
            initialValue : true
         }
      }
   }];
