Now what my intention is to get the Capitals/State value on the run time dynamically using the property name, for example.

JSON.parse(ValueList)[0].PropertyName;

How to achieve this. Thanks.

You can use bracket notation([]) for object selector

var PropertyName='Capitals';
JSON.parse(ValueList)[0][PropertyName];

Specifically, the values for Javascript object properties can be accessed using the dot notation (Object.property) or bracket notation (Object["property"]).
