No, that was the problem. Mounting /sys did the trick. Appreciate your help.

Trying to understanding this better. How is the sysfs tree maintained
per network namespace ? I assume only the /sys/class/net is per
network namespace and the rest of the /sys is shared with the host
namespace ? Also, how does mounting /sys in the network namespace make
the new /sys/class/net tree visible ?

thanks,
Manohar.
