Cordova CLI: 6.5.0

This is several years out of date. Please upgrade to Cordova CLI 8.1.2. We'll be releasing Cordova CLI 9 in the next few weeks.

Yes, my Cordova CLI version was outdated which I've upgraded to CLI 8.1.2.
Problem solved !!

Thanks @dpogue

I would suggest WemsolDev to do the same and close this issue.
