We can't delete a local variable that has been declared with var/let/const.

We can only delete properties of objects. This also includes global variables which are implicit properties of the window object. As per the MDN --

> The JavaScript delete operator removes a property from an object

If we change the code to the following then delete will work.

window.person = "Yomesh";

var deletePerson = () =&gt; {
  delete window.person;
  return window.person;
};

console.log(deletePerson()); // undefined
