When I put \usepackage{tocloft} in the preamble the pages that had list of figures and list of tables have been shifted forward. List of figures now starts on the contents page and list of tables starts on the list of figures page.

With tocloft, the ToC, the LoT and the LoF don't
start new pages when using document classes in which without the package they normally would do. If you want the lists to start a new page, you have two options:
Manually issue a
\cleardoblepagecommand. For example:\documentclass{book} \usepackage[titles]{tocloft} \begin{document} \tableofcontents \cleardoublepage \listoffigures \cleardoublepage \listoftables \cleardoublepage \end{document}Use the
titlespackage option:\documentclass{book} \usepackage{tocloft} \begin{document} \tableofcontents \listoffigures \listoftables \end{document}
The difference between both approaches is that the second one will make the titles of the LoF, LoT and LoF to follow any possible modification made to the formatting of the sectional unit producing the titles.

tocloftpackage that should be controlled by a package option. – egreg May 16 '13 at 22:04\cleardoublepageis the appropriate command -- it will force ListsofXXX to the next odd page if theopenrightclass option is in effect (as by default in thebookclass). – lockstep May 17 '13 at 11:40titles. – Marco Daniel May 17 '13 at 11:41titlesoption.
