can you please run the following command and post the result

ls -l /home/arun/Desktop/aru

as devils told you its a small L (-l)

[khafa]

run the following command(just copy and paste it to the terminal)

you open a terminal
and you run this

su -c "rm -rf /home/arun/Desktop/aru"

this will ask for the root password. you enter it and you should be done.

afterwards run the following command to check if the folder is deleted or not

ls /home/arun/Desktop/aru

tell us what happens afterwards
