Code:
csnlinux[member=7334]CSNLinux[/member]:~$  sudo apt-get update

W: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/nikount/orta-desktop/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file.

N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.

N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

So is there a way to get the updates, otherwise what is the right command to un-install this package?

That PPA does not have any support for Ubuntu xenial I believe. To remove it from your desktop as needed, from Terminal:

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:nikount/orta-desktop

sudo apt-get update

You want to install packages from repositories matching your desktop release. You can find your desktop release from a terminal:

Code:
lsb_release -sc

Thanks a million.

And Xenial it is!
