Shivdeep, the usual answer to this is that sizing and placing windows is
the task of the windowmanager.  If you want to get around this, take a
look at the functions gdk_screen_width(), gdk_screen_height() and
gtk_window_set_default_size().

Not sure about the last one, dig around in the APIs and you'll find
something appropriate.
