Django javascript traslation directory file not loading showing error - ReferenceError: gettext not defined

Question

As mentioned in the documentation, I followed these steps -

• In my settings.py

  LOCALE_PATHS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'locale'),
  )
  
  LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-us'
  
  USE_I18N = True
  
  USE_L10N = True
  
  ugettext = lambda s: s
  
  LANGUAGES = (
   ('en', ugettext('English')),
   ('mar', ugettext('Marathi')),
  )
  

• My locale directory is in the root folder of the Django project

• In urls.py

  from django.views.i18n import javascript_catalog
  
  js_info_dict = {
    'packages': ('phone',),
  }  
  
  urlpatterns = [
      url(r'^phone/', include('phone.urls')),
      url(r'^jsi18n/$', javascript_catalog, js_info_dict),
  ]   
  

• In base.html

  <script type="text/javascript" src="/jsi18n/"></script>
  

I can see the translation made by the trans tag, but when m tries to translate the variables into javascript using the gettext m method, getting this specific error

    ReferenceError: gettext is not defined

The FYI files - djangojs.po and djangojs.mo are in my locale directory, and I compiled the file after entering the translations.

I tried hard on google, but still the same error, please help me here.
