Dear Vuthy,

A typical PLAXIS command follows the structure of:

command target_object parameter

The delete command is one of the global commands and it targets the global object of geometry every time it is used. That is why in this case, your approach gives this error.
The global commands do not require specifying a target object that is why it can be skipped in the command line, e.g. the following are equivalent:

delete Point_1
delete Geometry Point_1

You can try the following command until you delete all the lines in Group_1:

delete Groups[-1][-1].Second

here Groups[-1] is the lastly created group and Groups[-1][-1] gets the last object (line) of this group.

Another option is using Python with which you can make a nice for-loop:

for line in g_i.Group_1:
g_i.delete(line.Second)
