Thanks @AkhlD and @Sachin Janani for suggesting changes in .conf file.

Following code solved my issue:

1) Added import org.apache.log4j.{Level, Logger} in import section

2) Added following line after creation of spark context object i.e. after val sc = new SparkContext(conf):

val rootLogger = Logger.getRootLogger()
rootLogger.setLevel(Level.ERROR)
