Trigger event on Select2 even if the options don't Change

I want to fire an event if I select an option from the select2, but I want it to fire even if the option value is not changed. My select2 version is 3.4.1 Timestamp: Thu Jun 27 18:02:10 PDT 2013 I tried a couple of methods.like.

First i tried, 

$('.myselect').on("change", function(e) { 
  // This function is not triggering if i selected the same option.
});

second, I tried,

$('.myselect').on("select2-selecting", function(e) { 
  // This function triggers alright but it's giving me my previous selected 
  // value(i don't want to use timeout function)
});

As per the documentation the right way to extract the currently selected value is by using the e.val property.

So your code must look like 

$('.myselect').on("select2-selecting", function(e) { 
  alert(e.val); // use this value;
});

Please find working solution below for this.

$('.myselect').on("select2-selecting", function(e) { 
  if(e.val){
    //Do your job
  }
});

you can use the select/unselect event and check with conditions 

$('#myselect').on('select2:unselect', function (evt) {...});
