Which dependency auto imports struts dependency
I want to remove struts dependency from my repository.It is being auto imported by some other dependency. I think it is org.apache.velocity but after putting exclusion as well, Maven imports struts. Please help me identify which dependency auto imports struts.

It's possible that Maven is downloading Struts for its own purposes. I know that until fairly recently, the maven-dependency-plugin and the maven-javadoc-plugin both had Struts as a dependency.
Try temporarily removing all of your own dependencies from the project and see if the problem still happens.
On that point, it would help with answering your question if you could tell us what Maven command reproduces the problem.

I can't give you a pom.xml file with the correct exclusions, but you may try running the following command from your project root folder:
man dependency:tree
Then, copy the output into a text editor and do a search for struts. If one or more of the other dependencies is bringing it in, you should see that happening. Then, once you have identified the dependencies which are including it, you may exclude it:
<dependency>
<groupId>sample.ProjectA</groupId>
<artifactId>Project-A</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
<artifactId>struts-core</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
