cout<<" Enter Username "<<endl<<endl;
cin>>username;
cout<<endl<<" Enter Password"<<endl<<endl;
cin>>password;

if(username=="raheel123"||username=="dania123")
{
if(username=="raheel123"&&password=="bigben123")

You cannot compare c-strings like that.
Use either std::string to store input (preferred) or use strcmp() function: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/strcmp/

[keskiverto]

The operator == in your code does not do what you expect.

You should use std::string in stead of char arrays.

UMM @MiiNiPaa and @keskiverto

Im sorry but i couldnt understand what u said properly .....
can u please rewrite the programme correctly.. THX

[MiiNiPaa]

#include<iostream>
#include <string>
int main()
{using namespace std;
char std::string username [12] ;
char std::string password [12] ;
//The rest is the same 

[AbstractionAnon]

username and password are C-strings. C-strings do not support the equality operator ==. Therefore lines 11,13,16 are not valid.

As both MiNiPaa and keskiverto suggested, you should use C++ strings.
http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/

Change lines 4-5:

#include <string> 
...
string username;
string password;
