Pavan,

Made a slight modification to your procedure as given above, and it worked for me.

First, in your step 5, my system only showed me the standard English keyboard I wanted to keep.  There was no sign of the Dvorak keyboard.

Only after clicking on the standard English keyboard was I presented with the two keyboards I had installed; the standard English and the Dvorak keyboards.

Clicking on the Dvorak keyboard, I was presented with the choice to delete it, which I did.

Thank you for your help in getting me into the right neighborhood, but it took the extra step of clicking on the standard English keyboard before I had access to the Dvorak keyboard.
