Hello Parvinder,

Some advice: When asking for technical support, make sure to include all the
steps you took and relevant information you found. This will help solve your
problem quicker, cut down on the frustration from those helping, and
hopefully give you a few "ah ha" points which may help you solve the problem
yourself.

So in this case: You're trying to connect your EC2 host. Well, what's that
host called? Does it have an IP or DNS 'we' can use to try to connect? At
this point we know nothing about your configuration. What about the AMI?
Including the AMI will allow another user to launch a similar instance and
test if the problem is uniform. Where are you connecting from? Were you ever
able to connect to an EC2 host from the location you're at now? Can you
create/launch another instance, and perhaps test a connection to that? What
firewall rules did you add to the EC2 host, if any? Can you do a port scan
or ping of the host to see if the EC2 instance is running and accessible?
(Note that if you're doing a port scan, you're looking for port 22 which is
SSH, if the host is not listening on 22 then you wont be able to connect via
the default configuration in PuTTY.)

 Hope this helps,
-Ted
