Hi Santi Ram,

You can try with belwo validation and add erroe message as your need . 
Option 1
ProjectNamc__C=='Leave' && TEXT(Project_Type__c) != 'Leave'   
Option 2
AND(ProjectName__c= 'Leave', TEXT(Project_Type__c) != 'Leave')
OPtion 3
IF(AND(ProjectName__c= 'Leave', TEXT(Project_Type__c) != 'Leave'),true,false)
All validation will work for you .Check your Field api name an dreplace if differeent .

Let me know if it helps !!
Thanks
