Hi
I m getting the following error while adding android platform to my project.

PS C:\Users\nitin94\Desktop\YugmaV2> ionic cordova platform add android
× cordova platform add android --save - failed!
[ERROR] Exception: Adding android project…

    Creating Cordova project for the Android platform:

I had already added the cordova plugins using the cmds
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera

and similar cmds for all the other plugins.

Though platform addition has failed, it has created a platform/android folder in my project with many other files and folder inside it.
My ionic info is:

PS C:\Users\nitin94\Desktop\YugmaV2> ionic info

cli packages: (C:\Users\nitin94\Desktop\YugmaV2\node_modules)

@ionic/cli-utils  : 1.9.1
ionic (Ionic CLI) : 3.9.1

global packages:

Cordova CLI : 6.5.0

local packages:

@ionic/app-scripts : 2.0.2
Cordova Platforms  : android broken
Ionic Framework    : ionic-angular 3.5.3

System:

Node : v6.11.2
npm  : 3.10.10
OS   : Windows 10

As u can see , android broken is mentioned in the added platform . I dont understand what does broken mean? I guess it is because of that error.
i have not installed Android SDK/ studio prior adding the plaform, do i need to do that?
Please help if u have any idea.
