I solved this issue using following code::

  if(canvas.getActiveObject().get('type')==="text")
        {
            //Display text panel
            console.log('text panel Displayed');
            $("#Image_left_panel").css("display", "none");
            $("#shape_left_panel").css("display", "none");
            //$("#left_panel").css("display", "block");
        }
        else if(canvas.getActiveObject().get('type')==="Image")
        {
            //Display Image Panel
            console.log('Image Panel Displayed');
            $("#Image_left_panel").css("display", "block");
            $("#shape_left_panel").css("display", "none");
            $("#left_panel").css("display", "none");
        }
        else
        {

        }
