Changed Thrift from 0.9.1 to 0.7.0 by downloading from http://archive.apache.org/dist/thrift/0.7.0/thrift-0.7.0.tar.gz. Extract and go into the extracted folder. Then typed following commands :
- chmod +x ./configure
- ./configure
- make
- sudo make install
Check thrift version by typing thrift -version. This should return "Thrift version 0.7.0"
Then go to elephant-bird folder and type "mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true package"
Note : skip test is used as some tests were failing. Skip test options solved the issue.

EDIT : Pig was throwing error while compiling load statement for JsonLoader as json-simple-1.1.1.jar was not found. Google for the jar, you can find it easily. ( Cannot post link due to less than 10 reputation)
and there was an error thrown while launching pig job regarding hadoop-compat. Download http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/twitter/elephantbird/elephant-bird-hadoop-compat/4.4/elephant-bird-hadoop-compat-4.4.jar (Also found in < elephant-bird-folder-path >/hadoop-compat/target/elephant-bird-hadoop-compat-4.4-SNAPSHOT.jar
)
register 4 Jars to use Elephant-Bird plugin in Pig.
