Why is it not working?

You are sending the name to the clients - do they receive the info?
The clients need to update the list of users in the chat. Is THIS working?
The client should be able to see what the new user types. is THIS working?
The new User should be able to see what the client types. is THIS working?

One at a time, try to develop it. You need to make small steps, don't try to do it all in one approach.

When a new user logs in ,all other users need to update their list.That part not working.

so you have trouble updating the List<user>.
Let me ask one more - do you use a chat server or at least some service on a Server to identify and coordinate the chat?
