  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    The error is occurred due to an issue from firebase end and not because of any issues from my deployment. It worked after trying several days later.


  2. The error that you have posted sometime may not give a direct indication of the issue with the cloud function deployment.Hence if you get error try to debug at initial stage with the following steps to better understand the cause:
    1.Add the command line option –debug"
    firebase deploy --debug --only functions
    2.Check the logs for messages:
    firebase functions:log
    As per what this seems to be at first glance is an issue initializing the firebase admin thus it is getting error updating the function , so try and add the following after the import code and check if you still get the issue:

    admin.initializeApp();
