I am trying to get the value from the Kendoui Checkbox but without success so far.
<input type="checkbox" id="telephonyeq1" name="telephonychk[]" class="k-checkbox telephonycb">
The script
<script>
    if($('#telephonyeq1').is(":checked"))
        {
        var telephonycb = "true"
        }
        else {
        var telephonycb = "false"
        }
</script>
when i am POST the data through AJAX i am always receiving value as "False", even if it's checked or unchecked.
Telephony: false 
And the Ajax
        $("#save").click(function() {
            $.ajax({
                url: "/test",
                method: "post",
                data: { 
                     .....
                    "telephonycb": telephonycb,
                    "internetcb": internetcb,
                    "_token": "{{ csrf_token() }}"
                },
                success: function(data) {
                    if($.isEmptyObject(data.error)){
                        printSuccessMsg(data.success);
                    } else{
                        printErrorMsg(data.error);
                    }
                }
            }); 
        }); 
        function printErrorMsg (msg) {
            ......
        }
        function printSuccessMsg (msg) {
            $(".print-error-msg").find("ul").html('');
            $(".print-error-msg").css('display','none');
            $(".print-success-msg").css('display','block');
            $("h5 span").html(
                '<br /><h5><strong>Incident Description</strong>
                .......
                '</code><br /><h5><strong>Impact on Services</strong></h5>Telephony: <code>' + telephonycb + '</code> Service Issues <code>' + telephony.value() + '</code> - Affected Users: <code>' + telephonyaffected.value() +

                ......
                );
        }
    });
</script>
