First of all root has all the necessary permissions to delete or manipulate any system objects across filesystem .
As asked by Raja please provide the details how you logged in as root .
However I surprise why you want to remove the above directory where essentials files required for gcc to operate, resides .If you want to uninstall gcc you can use package managers .
