It's because your username ends in 21. Try using something else and you should be ok. The IRC network was getting spam bots with nicks ending in 21.

Dear Developers,

this may seem you to be a spam but I have this problem constantly from a long time period approximately 15 days. I have mailed twice to this list as well as tried to fix this problem myself by using Google. But I am not being able to remove the problem.

Once again I am stating the problem here in more detail: 

My nickname on IRC is "sdpan21".

I have tried to join #tor. I was successful but on sending a message to channel it shows "#tor: Can not send to channel" .
I have tried to join #tor-dev , It shows a message "Cannot join #tor-dev (You are banned)." on xchat. and I have also tried on web based IRC where it shows "Cannot join #tor-dev (+b)."

I am not being able to communicate to developer group because of this reason.

I really appreciate the suggestion given above but those doesn't seems to be very helpful. I request you anyone please suggest how should I resolve this problem.

Thanks 

Durgesh Pandey.

Sometimes #tor and #tor-dev get spammed by some individual. During these
times the channel operator sets some protection or bans special
hostnames. If this is the case for you, just wait some time and come
back later. Usually those protections are removed after the spammer is
gone.
As far as I see it both channels have no special flags right now.
