I uninstalled finally -
[root@arup]# find /opt -name uninstall-postgresql
/opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/uninstall-postgresql
[root@arup]# /opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/uninstall-postgresql
And it got uninstalled. Then I deleted the postgres user
[root@arup]# userdel postgres
no crontab for postgres
and manually removed some file :
[root@arup]# rm -rf /opt/PostgreSQL/
[root@arup]# ls /opt/

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore,
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not
smart enough to debug it.
