I need to make my robot to follow the path planned by the global planner and completely ignore the local planner.

You can increase pdist_scale parameter value. It is distance-to-path scoring weight. Its default value is 0.6. You may try values like 0.8, or 0.9 . For the wiki: http://wiki.ros.org/base_local_planner

You can look into using the pose_follower package which does exactly what your asking for. It is however long outdated on the ROS Wiki page for that package, so i recommend that you look into this repo as those guys have been adding to the pose_follower package and it worked on indigo for me.

You will need to change your navigation parameters to load pose_follower as a local planner as opposed to base_local_planner
