Hello @Chinna2405,
this issue was already addressed in #40 PR. The package with the fix will be released next week.

I am having the same issue, is there any workaround before the new release ?

The change needed is quite simple - https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor4-angular/pull/40/files#diff-756e5674b9c69ad85fad09a2b0c3e852R194 so you may try apply it manually.

The best bet would be building package from the current master like:

git clone https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor4-angular.git
cd ckeditor4-angular
npm run build-package
