I'd suggest:

var el = document.querySelector('.country-IN');

el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML.replace(/&nbsp;/g,'');

JS Fiddle demo.

Or, with jQuery:

$('.country-IN').html(function(i,h){

    return h.replace(/&nbsp;/g,'');

});

JS Fiddle demo.

Or even:

$('.country-IN').children().each(function(i,e){

    this.parentNode.removeChild(this.nextSibling);

});

JS Fiddle demo.

Though it'd be easier to simply edit the HTML files themselves and just remove those strings of characters.
