Drop column syntax inconsistency #1212

Description

Describe the bug
In the context of CSV file, any capitalised column headers need to be wrapped with double quotation, but when it comes to .drop(col_name), the double quotation is not needed all of a sudden.

To Reproduce
df.drop('"ID_For_Students"') -> This should work but it didn't
df.drop('ID_For_Students') -> This worked instead

Expected behavior
df.drop('"ID_For_Students"') -> This should be the correct & standardised syntax for CSV file column headers with capitalisation.

Additional context
N/A
