 DROP PARTITION can be used to drop one or more RANGE or LIST  partitions. This command cannot be used with HASH or KEY  partitions; instead, use COALESCE PARTITION (see below). Any data that was stored in the dropped partitions named in the partition_names list is discarded. For example, given the table t1 defined previously, you can drop the partitions named p0 and p1 as shown here:

ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION p0, p1;

ALTER TABLE table_name DROP PARTITION p0, p1;

How to repeat:
Follow link above

Suggested fix:
ALTER TABLE table_name DROP PARTITION p0, p1;
