ArcGIS Pro 2.8 API Reference Guide
Delete Method (Row)
Example 

ArcGIS.Core.Data Namespace > Row Class : Delete Method
Deletes the row. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
Syntax
public void Delete()
Public Sub Delete() 
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
This table/feature does not support this operation. For example, it is from a joined table.
A geodatabase-related exception has occurred.
Remarks
Once delete is called on a Row, all subsequent queries against the table within the same session with this API will reflect the deleted state.
