Salam Wajid Ali,
Well OpenGL is the core library which provides programmers with 2d and 3d graphics routines. However to setup a particular application, you have to deal with the platform specific code to setup windows in which you do your rendering.
GLUT is a toolkit that enables you to setup platform specific code with the minimum of fuss.

OpenGL is an API, GLUT is just a(n old) library
You can check the RedBook out to learn more about OpenGL and GLUT
