not getting correct address in android studio

I used following code:

LocationManager locManager = (LocationManager)getActivity().getSystemService(getActivity().LOCATION_SERVICE);
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// TODO: Consider calling
// ActivityCompat#requestPermissions
// here to request the missing permissions, and then overriding
// public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions,
// int[] grantResults)
// to handle the case where the user grants the permission. See the documentation
// for ActivityCompat#requestPermissions for more details.
return;
}
locManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1000L, 500.0f, (LocationListener) this);
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return;
}
Location location = locManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
if(location==null){
location = locManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
}
final double Longitude = Double.parseDouble(String.valueOf(location.getLongitude()));
final double Latitude = Double.parseDouble(String.valueOf(location.getLatitude()));
Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(getContext(), Locale.ENGLISH);
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(Latitude, Longitude, 1);
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0); // If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
String addata = address;
canvas.drawText(addata, 10, 70, paint);
}catch (Exception e){
AlertShow alertObj = new AlertShow();
alertObj.showOkDialog(getActivity(), "Please Access device Location on High Accuracy..", "Warning");
}

Your code seems good. Have a look to the original documentation https://developer.android.com/training/location/display-address
