Help to access VisualForce fields in Controller

I have made a custom LeadConvert page. I need to pass following values from the page to the controller. How can I achieve this?

Controller snippet:--

<apex:pageBlockSectionItem >
            <apex:outputLabel for="Subject">Subject</apex:outputLabel>
            <apex:inputField value="{!Task.Subject}" id='tskSubject' >
             	<apex:param value="{!Task.Subject}" assignTo="{!tskSubject}"/>
             </apex:inputField>
          </apex:pageBlockSectionItem>
          <apex:pageBlockSectionItem >
            <apex:outputLabel for="Type">Type</apex:outputLabel>
            <apex:inputField value="{!Task.Type}" id='tskType'/>
          </apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

Hi,
Use PageReference Class
A PageReference is a reference to an instantiation of a page. Among other attributes, PageReferences consist of a URL and a set of query parameter names and values.
Example.
ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters()

For more info pls refer below link
https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#CSHID=apex_System_PageReference_getParameters.htm|StartTopic=Content%2Fapex_System_PageReference_getParameters.htm|SkinName=webhelp

I am having problems in accessing fields in Task information section. Kindly help.
NaveenReddyNaveenReddy
Hi Vandana,

  You are extending Standard Controller Lead and you are trying to access fields from Task which resulting a issue.

To achieve your requirement you need to write a Custom Controller.Pls refer below links..

Thanks Naveen. I have already made a Custom controller given below. But how do I get the Task fields from visualforce to this controller? 
public class LeadConvertController{
    Lead lead;
    Task tsk;
    
    //ApexPages.StandardSetController stCon;
    public List<Contact> lstDupContact {get; set;}

    public String value {get;set;}
    public String tskSubject {get;set;}   
    public String tskType {get;set;}
    
     //public ApexPages.StandardController myLeadController {get; set;}

    //public Lead Lead {get; set;}
