Try this
driver.findElementByXPath("//*[@class='android.widget.ImageView'][@content-desc='Navigation panel, button, double tap to open side panel']").click();
or
driver.findElementByXPath("//*android.widget.ImageView'[@content-desc='Navigation panel, button, double tap to open side panel']").click();

@CrashTestDummy: Thanks for reply. I have tried mentioned options but i have got same error again.

Is it not enough to look only at content-des or id?
may try something like
driver.findElement(By.name("Navigation panel, button, double tap to open side panel"));

For Appium name it content-des. Or

driver.findElement(By.id("resource-id value"));

@CrashTestDummy :- Following works for me
driver.findElement(By.id("resource-id value"));

@Amit_Tallewar :- I have tried xpath with class name and id but its not working.
