Strange. When did this start? Did you change anything recently?

Yes. I did make a lot of changes. First, I installed Gnome Shell. I was using Trisquel Desktop before (http://trisquel.info/files/Screenshot%20from%202015-07-09%2016:20:05.png). Then, from the older conky, I removed the date and time and added a Trisquel logo. I tweaked the position of images to get things right. Then, added a new rss feed for Stallman's posts in GnuSocial. Everything was fine even then. I was adding final touches like adjusting spaces that it suddenly began appearing ugly.

Well, some of the changes you did obviously caused this strange behavior. Check the conky config and try to understand where is the misconfiguration. Also, killall conky and restart it.

I did an end process from system monitor GUI. That worked but when I start conky again the problem returns. I tried the older version also with no positive result. My sister has a similar conky in her LMDE partition which works fine. My DuckDuckGo searches gave me some links that mentioned threads are not killed properly, curl leaves too many threads etc. Ring any bells?

Hmm.. not really, but it seems to me as you are running two instances of conky.

ps aux | grep conky

and see if it so.

Also, do you have your DE save the session on logout? That would explain the double instance and the overlay, I guess, as the old conky and the new one that is creating on boot/restore session produce the issue you experienced.

Other than that I fear I'm out of further ideas on this one..
Hope you solve it, cheers!

Problem Solved! It was some issue with GDM and Gnome Shell. Switched back to LightDM and Trisquel Desktop.

Conky works in Gnome Shell too! The reason for the problem remains a mystery.
