    try
    Code:

    remove that ppa from software sources as a bonus.

    +1 .

    Above post deals with CLI way . I will give you about the GUI way .
    you can perform that operation from the Software center and Synaptic package manager with clicks .
    Dont miss anything even it is small. one small pin is enough to bring down a man.

    I did not find the application in the Software Center before searching for "Google" and "Play". But now I searched by "lens" and goddamn was there hidden among the other lenses.

    It's removed! I removed through command line. Thanks!

    I uninstalled it because I did not returned any results to me.

    Open up a terminal and
    Code:
    sudo apt-get remove unity-lens-xxx
    where xxx is probably going to be googleplay. If you don't see that, try typing

    Code:
    sudo apt-get remove unity-
    WITHOUT PRESSING ENTER and then hitting tab twice to see what you get. You'll probably find what you're looking for.
