Who says Earth is stationary?

I guess you mean stationary flat earth - Bhumandala. Thats something else than earth globe.

Hare Krishna Dont you know that according to Vedic literature , our earth planet (spherical earth) is stationary that means it is neither rotating nor revolving around Sun instead Sun is revolving around Earth

It is not about being stationary, it is about a point of view or a reference. According to Vedic view Earth can move, but the plane of the planet earth (as veda said Bhumandala) is not moving. Obvious to anyone is that you can use any point as a reference for the cyclic movement of the Sun, so if you live on Sun the earth moves too.

You are misinformed. Look here:
http://www.scientificexploration.org/journal/jse_11_2_thompson.pdf
this is Sadaputas paper on planetary diameters and orbital dimensions based on the Surya Siddhanta

Is there any proof in Vedic literature regarding Earth rotating around the Sun?
Are there any solkas in Vedic literature which indicate that Earth is rotating around the Sun?

Surya siddhanta allegedly describes this but I didnt read it.
