As metioned in the above doc, I have already installed the required software for Phonegap as I have getting versions:
For Java:
$ java -version java version "1.7.0_51" Java(TM) SE Runtime
Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM
(build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)
For ANT
$ ant -version
Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.2 compiled on December 3
2011
For Node.JS
$ npm -version
1.4.3
Now, the problem is when I create a phonegap project for Android like this "$ cordova create hello com.example.hello HelloWorld", it creates the project directory with "hello" name.
But now, when I enter this command "$ cordova platform add android" in "hello" directory, it gives me the error given below:
/hello$ cordova platform add android Creating android project...

How to get out of this problem?
I could fix this issue by following the cordova-guide. in short:
add the named folders to the PATH
variable:
export PATH=${PATH}:/home/me/opt/adt-bundle/sdk/platform-tools:/home/me/opt/adt-bundle/sdk/tools
