Recently I have gone through tasksel command usage because of LAMP server setup. Why can't I use apt-get or aptitude there? Why does the Ubuntu wiki page suggest to do it with tasksel only. Is there any specific reason? Where should tasksel be used? whats going to happen if I use aptitude or apt-get instead of tasksel while installing the server.

I guess you must have used the command:
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
You could have also used:
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
Remember that lamp-server is not a package but a task. Tasksel is generally used to install tasks on your system. Please read its documentation.
