HI Vivekanandan, I implemented this intentionally and had the same concern whether it should be recursive. I thought it should not be. But if we need recursive delete IMO it should only be optional, meaning that it shouldn't be the default. May be we can include it as another parameter with 'yes/no" values.
@Malaka - Do we need recursive delete. If needed I can implement and send a PR.
