I tried with your suggestion but still it did not delete old index files.
Anyway I closed reader before closing writer and reopened reader after closing
writer which deleted all old index files.
reader.close();
writer.close();
reader.open();

Just insert this:
new IndexWriter(luceneDirectory, analyzer).close();
after you've reopened your reader above. That should prune all deletable files
from the index.
