@shubha123 If this is indeed a npm issue, we can help :) is there any sort of error log that you could upload as a gist? It's not immediately clear to me what the issue is nor who is at fault.

@shubha123 Could you please upload the log as a gist, as I suggested? Attaching logs to an email reply does not work.

This is most likely not a problem with npm itself and is related to network connectivity. In most cases you are behind a proxy or have bad network settings.

Are you behind a proxy?
