I want to check the date which must be in the format dd-mm-yyyy
using a regular expression, and it also must check the leap year dates.
I am using RegularExpressionValidator
for checking the date.

try this. It works for me!
ValidationExpression="(^((((0[1-9])|([1-2][0-9])|(3[0-1]))|([1-9]))-(((0[1-9])|(1[0-2]))|([1-9]))-(([0-9]{2})|(((19)|([2]([0]{1})))([0-9]{2}))))$)"
Try this regular expression-
^(((((0[1-9])|(1\d)|(2[0-8]))-((0[1-9])|(1[0-2])))|((31-((0[13578])|(1[02])))|((29|30)-((0[1,3-9])|(1[0-2])))))-((20[0-9][0-9]))|(29-02-20(([02468][048])|([13579][26]))))$
Got it from Here
This regex also handles leap year:
^(((0[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01])/(0[13578]|1[02])/((19|[2-9]\d)\d{2}))|((0[1-9]|[12]\d|30)/(0[13456789]|1[012])/((19|[2-9]\d)\d{2}))|((0[1-9]|1\d|2[0-8])/02/((19|[2-9]\d)\d{2}))|(29/02/((1[6-9]|[2-9]\d)(0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|((16|[2468][048]|[3579][26])00))))$
Matches
[29/02/2000], [30/04/2003], [01/01/2003]
Non-Matches
[29/02/2001], [30-04-2003], [1/1/1899]

You can javascript to check leap year for more info
isLeap = new Date(year, 1, 29).getMonth() == 1
Regular Expression
^(?:^(?:(?:(?:(?:(?:0?[13578]|1[02])/31)|(?:(?:0?[13-9]|1[0-2])/(?:29|30)))/(?:1[6-9]|[2-9]\d)\d{2})|(?:0?2/29/(?:(?:(?:1[6-9]|[2-9]\d)(?:0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|(?:(?:16|[2468][048]|[3579][26])00))))|(?:(?:0?[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))/(?:0?[1-9]|1\d|2[0-8])/(?:(?:1[6-9]|[2-9]\d)\d{2}))$)$
These allow but do not require a leading zero in single-digit months/days. If you don't want that, replace all instances of 0? with 0.
You could use a CustomValidator and have the client-side validation be simple and on the server-side use a DateTime.TryParse to get a definitive validation. Although I suspect you don't need your code to work all the way to the year 9999 (no, I couldn't immediately see if the supplied regexes work that far into the future).
from Microsoft DN but modified to work with years both 20xx and 19xx to used as DOB
^(((((0[1-9])|(1\d)|(2[0-8]))/((0[1-9])|(1[0-2])))|((31-((0[13578])|(1[02])))|((29|30)-((0[1,3-9])|(1[0-2])))))/((((20[0-9][0-9]))|(29-02-20(([02468][048])|([13579][26]))))|(((19[0-9][0-9]))|(29-02-19(([02468][048])|([13579][26]))))))$
for dd/MM/yyyy formate
(((0|1)[0-9]|2[0-9]|3[0-1])\/(0[1-9]|1[0-2])\/((19|20)\d\d))$
