Ansible include roles based on OS version

I have below files csi.yaml file, it include the roles beased on the OS version. this work but if I run it on CentOS 8, its giving skipping: message all the task in RHEL7-CIS tasks.

roles:
   - { role: RHEL7-CIS, when: ansible_distribution == "CentOS" and ansible_distribution_major_version == '7' }
   - { role: RHEL8-CIS, when: ansible_distribution == "CentOS" and ansible_distribution_major_version == '8' }

try to include the role based on OS version this but its giving error also.

 gather_facts: True
roles:
 - "RHEL{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}-CIS"

ERROR! 'ansible_distribution_major_version' is undefined

Is there an alternate way of including the role based on OS version?

Thanks SR

You can just suppress output from skipped tasks using custom callback. See this answer for details.
