https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airavata
Airavata (Sanskrit: ऐरावत "belonging to Iravati") is a white elephant who carries the deity Indra. It is also called 'abhra-Matanga', meaning "elephant of the clouds"; 'Naga-malla', meaning "the fighting elephant"; and 'Arkasodara', meaning "brother of the sun".[1] 'Abhramu' is the elephant wife of Airavata. Airavata has ten tusks and five trunks and is spotless white. Airavata is also the third son of Iravati. In the Mahabharata he is listed as a great serpent.

Symbolically, Airavata represents the white clouds that appear after the rains – Indra riding on the white clouds throws thunder bolts (with his vajra) and forces the dark clouds to shed rain and clear the sky.
