Flutter permission to contact

My code is the file name is interface.dart. I’m calling the interface.dart from the main.dart

I’m getting a permission denied error when try to access the contacts in the emulator

I added the permission_handler dependency in the pubspec.yaml
Then added the permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml for both read and write

import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:contacts_service/contacts_service.dart';
import 'package:permission_handler/permission_handler.dart';
import 'dart:io';
import 'dart:convert';

import 'package:url_launcher/url_launcher.dart';
import 'package:path_provider/path_provider.dart';
