I tried deleting it from /etc/apt/sources and /etc/apt/sources.d, but whenever I run apt-get install for any package , it gives the following output in the end

Setting up getdeb-repository (0.1-1~getdeb1) ...
--2016-05-16 17:16:03--  http://archive.getdeb.net/getdeb-archive.key

And the "getdeb" entries magically come back in /etc/apt/sources.d. Is there any fix to remove "getdeb" completely from my system?

System Settings -> Software & Updates -> Other Software, uncheck archive.getdeb.net box. Worked fine on Ubuntu 16.04.

sudo apt-get remove getdeb-repository

Also delete refs to getdeb in /etc/apt/sources.lst

Your connection might be unstable or slow, so you must go to Update Manager, then to Settings, then to Servers, and click on Select Best Server button, once the best server is chosen, try removing it again.
