CV2: Import Error in Python OpenCV

Question

I have Anaconda installed in my system and I recently installed OpenCV 3.0.0 using the instructions given on this page. But when I open python and type import cv2, it throws me the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /home/ashutosh/anaconda2/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cv2.so)

I dont't know why am I getting this error. I also put the PYTHONPATH in the bashrc file, sourced it but nothing happened.

sudo apt-get install libgcc.

sudo apt-get install libgcc

This dependency caused the error.
