If a partition is formatted, or deleted, then the information saved on that partition is also deleted.
So, if there is any information on the partition you wish saved, backup that information or copy it to another partition or another location before deleting the partition.
The information is technically still there. When a partition is "deleted", only the flags that indicate where it stops and starts are removed. The flags can be put back, and the files will be accessible, just as they were before.

Linux will not delete a partition unless you tell it to.

If you will delete a partition, it will not be merged with c insted, you will loose all the data on that partition, and that space will remain as unpartitioned space on hard disk and you will not be able to use it until you re partition that space and format it. So if you want to merge both c: and d: than my advice is either you delete both partitions and create a new merged one or (If you Don't want to get into that mess or you don't know how to do it) You can use softwares which merge partitions like partition magic etc. .................................
