apt - this /usr/bin/dpkg returned error || ubuntu-16.04, 64bit

I am trying to install htop, but it was failed due to unmet dependencies.
Tried sudo apt-get -f install, but it did not either resolve the issue.


Tried sudo apt clean & sudo apt update, sudo apt upgrade, no luck.
Tried removing the dpkg as well, no luck.


Earlier it was displaying, Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock so that I have removed it and now it shows below error ain the installation.


Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
