I have cloned the k8 official repository from here and built the binaries kubectl, kubeadm, and kubelet. And I have exported the binaries directory into the $PATH system variable and have also edited the .bashrc profile as shown below:

suraj@suraj-lab:~$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin:/home/suraj/projects/kubernetes/_output/dockerized/bin/linux/amd64

The snippet of cat .bashrc

when i hit the command kubeadm init, it says the command is not run with sudo privileges. However when i hit the sudo kubeadm init it says sudo: kubeadm: command not found. I checked running kubectl version, kubelet version, and kubeadm version, all of them give the expected output. could somebody please help me what’s getting wrong here ? i mean why i am not able to run the kubeadm with the sudo prefix?

One workaround is, if i paste the full path of kubeadm binaries it works as shown below:
