Aneela, It looks like the Ranger HBase plugin used in this environment is from an earlier version than the Ranger Admin. Can you please send the version details to troubleshoot this further?
While we look at fixing the issue in the code, you should be able to continue by using Ranger HBase plugin from the same version as Ranger Admin.
