After spending more than day i came across many solutions, which are as follow

  1. Some developers solve this problem by, i downgraded node from v8 to v7.6.0 and all seems to work fine with ionic CLI. From Here but this solution not work for me.

  2. Run Command Line as Administrative, this solution is beneficial

  3. The Correct and well solution work for me, is to install install all node-gyp dependencies by following command 

     $ npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

    and then install the package

     $ npm install --global node-gyp
