Try

<select name="leave_category_id" class="form-control" onchange="check_leave_category(this.value)" required  >
    <option>Select Leave Category...</option>
    <?php foreach ($all_leave_category as $v_category) :

        // Using short tag
        //$v_category->leave_category_id == $cat ? $selected = 'selected' : $selected = '';

        // without using short tag
        if($v_category->leave_category_id == $cat) $selected = 'selected'; else $selected = '';
        ?>
        <option value="<?php echo $v_category->leave_category_id ?>" <?php echo $selected?> > <?php echo $v_category->category ?>  </option>

    <?php endforeach;
    ?>
</select>
