Rename the article/Name of the person to Manohar Lal

Mr. Manohar Lal, the incumbent chief minister of Haryana has told "in the assembly that he doesn’t want people to suffix ‘Khattar’ with his name any more" in 2016.^[1]. In fact in the election affidavit in 2014 his name is written as "Manohar Lal" and not as "Manohar Lal Khattar". The scanned copy of the affidavit can be found in this reference link. ^[2]. The official website of Haryana government has mentioned the name of the chief minister of state as "Manohar Lal". ^[3] So it is appropriate to change the article name into Manohar Lal and change his name inside the article into Manohar Lal.
