Removing mssql-server from Ubuntu 20.04 in WSL1

$

I installed mssql-server on Ubuntu 20.04 running as WSL1. However that turns out to be a bad move as it can't get it installed properly.To makes things worse, I can't remove it either. So my apt stuck with mssql-server that I can neither install properly nor completely remove.

When I try to remove it, it will show the error like below

root@my-host:/var/cache/apt# apt remove mssql-serverReading package lists... DoneBuilding dependency treeReading state information... DoneThe following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:  libc++1 libc++1-10 libc++abi1-10 libsss-nss-idmap0Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.The following packages will be REMOVED:  mssql-server0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 139 not upgraded.1 not fully installed or removed.After this operation, 1195 MB disk space will be freed.Do you want to continue? [Y/n]dpkg: error processing package mssql-server (--remove): package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting a removaldpkg: too many errors, stoppingErrors were encountered while processing: mssql-serverProcessing was halted because there were too many errors.

Any help would be appreciated.
