xamarin Android Deployment on Android Mobile Device Issue

Sir, Previously when ever I have deployed my android application using xamarin on visual studio 2017 the application would be deployed perfectly. But after watching a video for google Map tutorial as : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6Q0olRPsus, I am unable to deploy application on android device and on emulator as well.

Now I am getting the following error on deployment : Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_MANIFEST_MALFORMED].

This is my error log File : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxn7UXgmstmRZzMtLV9nc3M5RlU

Manifest Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="VaishnoDeviTourismApp.VaishnoDeviTourismApp" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" android:installLocation="auto">

After testing your manifest, we found that the error occurred with your permission <permission android:name="VaishnoDeviTourismApp.VaishnoDeviTourismApp.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" android:protectionLevel="signature" />.

The VaishnoDeviTourismApp.VaishnoDeviTourismApp... should be your package name, the first letter is upper case in your scenario, we may need to change it to lowercase. Like this vaishnoDeviTourismApp.VaishnoDeviTourismApp.... Or you may try to change it like this <uses-permission android:name="${applicationId}.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" android:protectionLevel="signature">

I didn't find any document point out this rule, actually, on the contrary, the the document says:

The name may contain uppercase or lowercase letters ('A' through 'Z'), numbers, and underscores ('_'). However, individual package name parts may only start with letters.

So, I can only consider it as a bug for now, and I found this report in Bugzilla.
