Bala,
I did receive your email. Just I don't know how to reply and thought others would do a much better job of replying than I could.
I have installed Debian many times and usually use XFCE. I can only suggest you missed typed your password when you created the account. A reinstall should fix this issue.
Maybe a corruption happened during the installation? A reinstall should fix this issue.
I wonder what steps you chose in your installation?
Did you create an root account, and allow log in as root?
If so you could try logging in as "root" username and its password. If you can log in as root, then you can reset your user's password, and try logging in again.
These are all I could suggest for you.
George.
