How to fix "More than one file was found with OS independent path 'project.properties'" Error in Android Studio 3.0 Beta-6

I am using Android Gradle:3.0.0-beta-6 and it throws the following Error ever since I included Google Translation API.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong: Execution failed for task 
':app:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'.

More than one file was found with OS independent path 'project.properties'

This is my dependencies

dependencies {
    annotationProcessor 'com.google.auto.value:auto-value:1.2'
    implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
    implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1',
 {
  exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
    })
    api 'com.twitter.sdk.android:twitter-core:3.1.1'
    api 'com.google.cloud:google-cloud-translate:1.6.0'
}

How can I fix this error and why exactly this is happening because I searched exhaustively for last 34 hrs and I didn't get an explanation.

Have you tried adding this to your build.gradle?

android {
    ...
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/project.properties'
    }
}
