I am getting 401 Unauthorized error when i use Http GET call with OAuthConsumer client.

I have all the required parameters for Oauth 1.0 authorization.

Consumer Key = "XXX"
Consumer Secret = "YYY"
oauth_signature_method = "HMAC-SHA1"
oauth_timestamp = "calculated timestamp"
oauth_nonce = "calculated nonce"
oauth_version = 1.0
oauth_signature = "calculated signature"

The same Ouath 1.0 code in python is working well for me just by using consumer key, secret and signature_type='auth_header' and by calling requests.get(). Here's my python code below :

import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

url = "XXX"
header_auth = OAuth1('consumer_key','consumer_secret', signature_type='auth_header')
response = requests.get(url, auth=header_auth)
print(response.status_code)
print(response.content)

Here is my code snippet in Java. Could you please suggest where I am going wrong?

public class OauthConsumerClient

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
public static void main(String args) 

 String url = "XXX";

 DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
 httpClient.getParams().setParameter("http.protocol.content-charset", "UTF-8"); 
 HttpRequestBase httpRequest = null;
 URI uri = null;
 HttpResponse httpResponse = null;
 OAuthConsumer oAuthConsumer = new CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer("consumer_key", "consumer_secret");
 oAuthConsumer.setSigningStrategy(new AuthorizationHeaderSigningStrategy());

 try 
 uri = new URI(url);
 httpRequest = new HttpGet(uri);
 httpRequest.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
 oAuthConsumer.sign(httpRequest);
 HttpHost target = new HttpHost(uri.getHost(), -1, uri.getScheme());
 httpResponse = httpClient.execute(target, httpRequest);
 System.out.println("Connection status : " + httpResponse.getStatusLine());
 System.out.println("Connection status code : " + httpResponse.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());

 catch (Exception e) 
 System.out.println("Exception occured");
 
 InputStream inputStraem = httpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
 StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
 IOUtils.copy(inputStraem, writer, "UTF-8");
 String output = writer.toString();
 System.out.println("Connection response : " + output);

Output

NOTE : When i hit the same URL in postman with Oauth 1.0 authorization type. I am getting response code 200 OK with the body.

Let me know if you need additional information. Thank you so much for your help !!!
