`internal threads are going on in the doInBackground` ?? internal threads in doInBackgroud? You should not use threads there. – greenapps Jul 21 '16 at 10:31

`doInBackground is not getting called`. There is nothing in your post about this problem. – greenapps Jul 21 '16 at 10:34

According to Google you can't call the same asynctask object twice. If you do so it will throw an exception.
The task can be executed only once (an exception will be thrown if a second execution is attempted.)
For details see the documentation here. Read 'Threading rules' chapter.
As @greenapps said, don't use any thread inside doInBackground. doInBackground itself running under a thread.
If you want to cancel the previous asynctask that is currently running call cancel(true) method of asynctask object. If you rerun the task, then reinitialize that object and execute it again.
