I have files like:

I am trying to delete selected files from both the folders and I tried:
rm -rvf CONFIG2[/DOS[/PROCAR, /CHG*, /vasprun.xml]]
ending up with error:
rm: cannot remove 'CONFIG2[/DOS[/PROCAR,': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '/CHG*,': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '/vasprun.xml]]': No such file or directory
Where I am going wrong here?
