Try this,

// remove caching
        jsObjRequest.setShouldCache(false);
        // Wait 30 seconds and don't retry more than once
        jsObjRequest.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(0, 0,
                DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));

Method call form task

public void callWebService(JSONObject jsonRequest) {

    JsonObjectRequest jsObjRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(
            Request.Method.POST, url + pageurl, jsonRequest,
            new Response.Listener() {

                @Override
                public void onResponse(JSONObject jsonObject) {
                    sendResponse(jsonObject);

                }
            }, new Response.ErrorListener() {

                @Override
                public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {

                    callBack.onError(error);
                    try {
                        if (progressDialog != null) {
                            progressDialog.dismiss();
                            progressDialog = null;
