Srinivas, please understand, that the public and private keys in the shared key will come from different party. The private key is the one you've just generated and the public key will be received in some encoded format from the other peer. I gave you below the methods how you encode the public key so it can be sent to the other peer of the exchange. When receiving the encoded public key from the other peer you'll either use OSSL_DECODER to decode the encoded public key or create a new domain parameters EVP_PKEY and use EVP_PKEY_set1_encoded_public_key() to set the public key data on that key.
