dpkg: error: requested operation requires superuser privilege

What i found is it is asking for sudo priviledge so i changed the parameters to become, but still it is not getting resolved.

- name: Install the Deb Package of ReconApp

  apt:

    name: "'/home/bishwajit/RECONAPP_1.0.0-26719-g5defc4d/reconapp_config_1.0.0-26719-g5defc4d_amd64.deb"

    install_recommends: yes

    state: present

  become: yes

  

Can anyone help me ?

I think that 'name' expects just a package name, to install from a repo.
try 'deb' for installing from a file on the remote machine.
