you need to add these requested permission into your AndroidManifest.xml file check here for examle

[rubinnellikunnathu]

no its not the problem. i think the problem is whenever i press deny permission button, it redirects to method void granted. there the code works without permission and finally endup in security exception (because permission is not given yet,but still it goes to granted method)

[00ec454]

I know why
the method public void granted(List<String> permissions) will be called even if permission is denied but the list of permissions will be empty, you need to check what list if the desired permission has been granted by user, if yer the permission list will contain that permission else it will be in public void denied(List<String> permissions) permission list.
to avoid this error you need to put if condition in public void granted(List<String> permissions) and if particular permission granted then you can go ahead to check your logic. you can do something like

@Override
 public void granted(List<String> permissions) {
   if(permissions.contains(Manifest.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS)){
     // get account granted and put your logic here   
   }
   if(permissions.contains(Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)){
     // CONTACTS granted and put your logic here   
   }
 }
