data is a 10x2 character array, so it does not have a 5th column. I assume you meant row. See my solution.

data([1 5],:) = []
data = 8×2 char array

Dear @the cyclist, the column numbers that should be removed are defined as variable such as:
remove=[1 5];
How I can apply the remove variable into the above code rather than writing [1 5] ?

remove = [1 5];
data(remove,:) = []
data = 8×2 char array

This is a very basic MATLAB question. You might benefit from watching the MATLAB Onramp tutorial.
