ORA-01749: you may not GRANT/REVOKE privileges to/from yourself

I am running the below query from RATOR_MONITORING schema which is granting the reference permission from RATOR_MONITORING_CONFIGURATION.SMSC_GATEWAY table to RATOR_MONITORING schema.

GRANT REFERENCES ON "RATOR_MONITORING_CONFIGURATION"."SMSC_GATEWAY" TO "RATOR_MONITORING";  
ALTER TABLE "RATOR_MONITORING"."SMSC_GATEWAY_STATUS" ADD CONSTRAINT "SMSC_GATEWAY_STATUS_FK1" FOREIGN KEY ("SMSC_GATEWAY_ID")  
   REFERENCES "RATOR_MONITORING_CONFIGURATION"."SMSC_GATEWAY" ("ID") ON DELETE CASCADE ENABLE; 

When i run the below query i am getting error as :

SQL Error: ORA-01749: you may not GRANT/REVOKE privileges to/from yourself

I have other sql statements as well which i want to run from RATOR_MONITOR schema only. This sql statement are stored in a sql file. And i am running this sql file in sql plus. So is there any way using anonymous block or any other approch where i can connect to schema RATOR_MONITORING_CONFIGURATION schema and grant the reference permission and again connect to rator_monitor schema and run the alter table statement and also other sql statements.

If you have SQL script to do this then you can simply add connect statement to switch the user as shown below.

I have test.sql file which contains grant and alter statements. I have two user sh and hr.

conn sh/sh@orcl
grant REFERENCES on sh.customers to hr;
conn hr/hr@orcl
ALTER TABLE cust ADD CONSTRAINT fk1 FOREIGN KEY (ID) REFERENCES sh.customers(CUST_ID) ON DELETE CASCADE ENABLE; 

And I have simply executed the script.

[oracle@ora12c ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
