Nokia 6610 backlight problem

Hi all.
I have interfaced my ATMEGA32 controller with Nokia 6610 LCD.
The interface pinouts are as follows:

// Connections between ATMEGA32 and LCD.
#define _RES PORTB.6 // /Reset
#define SCK PORTB.7 // Serial Clk
#define SDI PORTB.5 // Serial Data In
#define _SCE PORTB.4 // /Chip Select

// Connection Direction between ATMEGA32 and LCD.
#define SCK_DIR DDRB.7
#define SDI_DIR DDRB.5
#define _SCE_DIR DDRB.4
#define _RES_DIR DDRB.6

and the LCD Init routine is

void InitLcd(void) 
{
        // Configured all pins as output      
        SCK_DIR  = 1;                                    
        SDI_DIR  = 1;      
        _SCE_DIR = 1;      
        _RES_DIR = 1;
        delay_us(200);
      
// Hardware reset
      _SCE = 1;      
      _RES = 1;            //Reset the LCD.   
      _RES = 0;            //Reset the LCD.
      delay_ms(10);          //Wait 100ms.
      _RES = 1;            // Awake LCD from RESET state.
      delay_ms(10);         //Wait 10ms.
// Hardware reset

      
      _SCE = 1;
        SDI  = 1;
        SCK  = 1;
      

  // Sleep out  (command 0x11)
  WriteSpiCommand(SLEEPOUT);   
       
    // Sleep out  (command 0x11)
  WriteSpiCommand(BSTRON);   
  delay_ms(100);
  

  // Inversion OFF  (command 0x21)
 WriteSpiCommand(INVON);            
 
  // Color Interface Pixel Format  (command 0x3A)
  WriteSpiCommand(COLMOD);
  WriteSpiData(0x02);

 // Memory access controler  (command 0x36)
  WriteSpiCommand(MADCTL);
  WriteSpiData(0x48);        // 0xC0 = mirror x ,NO MIRROR y,reverse rgb


    // Write contrast  (command 0x25)
  WriteSpiCommand(SETCON);             
  WriteSpiData(0x3F);                  // contrast 0x30 DECMAL EQU 63

  delay_ms(100);        //Wait 100ms.

  
  

  // Display On  (command 0x29)
  WriteSpiCommand(DISPON);
}

The VCC for the LCD is through Port pin and is divided to obtain3.3V.For the backlight i am externally providing 7V as mentioned. But still the backlight is not turning ON. I guess the backlight is not software controlled. Help me please.My controller is working on 1MHz.
