Android Sdk Manager Permission Denied

I am setting up eclipse and ADT everything is working fine JAVA, android virtual devices and everything except the ADT sdk manager it says permission denied.

/home/yousaf/android-sdks/tools/android: 84: java: Permission denied
/home/yousaf/android-sdks/tools/android: 101: java: Permission denied
exec: 114: java: Permission denied

I have executable permission on this folder and files owner is my own user and I have tried to run this as root but same results.

Here are the permissions for that file
