Hi @leapfrog-bishalghimire,
There was one directory you missed, it's Pods/ in your current working directory.
$ sudo rm -fr Pods/
$ pod install
We also have a troubleshooting section which mentions this inside our guides at http://guides.cocoapods.org/using/troubleshooting.html#im-getting-permission-errors-while-running-pod-commands .
Thanks, but my problem was solved when I changed permission of my project folder
sudo chown -R username:staff projectFolder
