@HunainHafeez, you can use Request.UrlReferrer to get the referrer server variable. This information is, however, supplied by the browser and is considered to be unreliable.

You could also pass along a querystring variable when you redirect that identifies the source page. For example:

if (Session["applicantSession"] == null)
{
  Response.Redirect("~/loginApplicant.aspx?source=application");
}

before you get too deep into a solution, you should consider an alternate approach. I would recommend that you take a look at this MSDN article....

How To Implement Forms-Based Authentication in Your ASP.NET Application by Using C#.NET

To do what you are asking, you can use the RedirectFromLoginPage method.
