@SridharArrabelly - can you verify that your user (or service principal executing the deployment) has the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) Administrator role assigned on your subscription?

I've found this is generally the issue, where this role is either not assigned or is limited in scope to particular resources.

I had a similar issue - for me restarting the deployment helped. It seems there are some timing issues. Also at some point the issue was that the nodes inthe AKS cluster were still starting.

Having the same error. Did you just run bash deploy.sh -p deploy.parameters.json again?
