UC Browser loads a saved page when user clicks on back button. I want previous page to refresh on back button action so that controls such as checkboxes get restored to default state. I want to control it programmatically in HTML or JavaScript. Can anyone suggest how to do that?

Have a look at that ^ linked question. It should do what you need. – Reinstate Monica Cellio Apr 21 '16 at 09:57

Probably this should help:
location.reload(true);
forcedReload Optional Is a Boolean flag, which, when it is true, causes the page to always be reloaded from the server. If it is false or not specified, the browser may reload the page from its cache.

Thanks for your answer. However, it doesn't work for UC Browser. The previous page does not unload from the window in UC, it remains open. When user clicks back button, the previous page is simply shown in the foreground. I want to prevent that. – Sachin Singh Jun 09 '16 at 11:33
