The Wikipedia page of the list of Chief Ministers of Delhi was earlier vandalised today. The vandalised page addressed incumbent Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as Lavanasur. Since then, the page has been rectified and Lavnasur can no longer be found on the page.

Amusingly enough, when one Googles Lavnasur, photographs of Kejriwal pop up in search images.

Lavanasura is actually a character from the Ramayana, a demon was killed by Shri Rams brother Shatrughan, the youngest of Ramas brothers. Lavanasura was a tormentor of the innocent and his notoriety was widespread. As a child, he used to kill his play mates and eat them. He used to disrupt the sacrifices of Sages and unleash terror across the land.

Not many people know it, but Arvind Kejriwal was awarded the Lavnasur moniker by a popular Twitter user. The user, who goes by the username @Being_Humor on Twitter, spoke to OpIndia regarding why he gave that particular name to the Delhi Chief Minister.

According to @Being_Humor, Kejriwal, like Lavanasura, torments people with his antics and generally gives people a hard time. The fact that the name sounds funny and sounds like a slang in general also convinced him to gift the AAP supremo the moniker.

When he threw the name at him initially, it was well received by the masses on social media. And since then, it has stuck. And before long, when someone googled Lavnasur on Google, Kejriwals photograph began to pop up due to the nature of algorithms.

Questioned regarding if Arvind Kejriwal really deserved the Lavnasur tag, he responded, Yes, because it is the truth.

The nickname has also led to endless memes on social media.

And it has culminated with the vandalism of the page on Wikipedia. Arvind Kejriwal is also famous for his U-Turns which has also made him the subject of much mockery online.
