Error in ionic installation

I am installing ionic via sudo npm install ionic -g

and getting the following error

/root/.nvm/versions/node/v4.2.2/bin/ionic -> /root/.nvm/versions/node/v4.2.2/lib/node_modules/ionic/bin/ionic

> [email protected] install /root/.nvm/versions/node/v4.2.2/lib/node_modules/ionic/node_modules/node-sass
> node scripts/install.js


module.js:340
    throw err;
          ^

The issue is also listed in ionic forums: - https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/installing-ionic-not-successful-solved/36050/7

I have tried changing node, npm, cordova versions multiple times but every time I get this error so I guess this has nothing to do with versions. Also at some places it was mentioned that installing ionic from root might help so I have done that also.

Kindly help me figure out this one. Thanks
