The term 'Meva' is also used in Hinduism, particularly in the context of the Bhavishya Purana, a Hindu scripture. In this text, Meva is described as the name of a demon, who was a powerful asura (demon) and was killed by Lord Vishnu in the form of Matsya Avatar (Fish Incarnation). This event is believed to have taken place around the beginning of the Dwapara Yuga (around 3100 BCE).
