Sandeep,

"Public" has no default permissions, they all have to be granted. For any
database you are interested in, do:

exec sp_helprotect @username='public'

Public role members can view select from some catalog views and have limited
meta data visibility. However, as Russell mentioned, no user object
permissions are allowed by default.

Hope this helps.
