How can I delete rows for a particular Date in a Pandas dataframe?
<p>I've got a Pandas DataFrame using Date as an index. How can I drop all rows that have the date "2000-01-06"?</p>

<p>Sample code:</p>

<pre><code>import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

dates = pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=8)
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(8, 3), index=dates, columns=['A', 'B', 'C'])
df.index.name = 'Date'
</code></pre>

<p>Example DataFrame:</p>

<pre><code>                   A         B         C
Date
