> Simple question, however could not find anything for it.

Neither could I. If you check the docs (go to
http://postgresql.org./, then to the users' lounge until you find
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.1/reference/sql-altertable.
html at the Reference Manual) you will see the ALTER TABLE command doesn't
include a DROP COLUMN action.

> How can we drop a column from a table ?

It seems we can't.
