rm -rf equivalent on Windows batch script

I want to delete multiple folders & files at once and the command should not broke even if some directories or files aren't preset. Also I use wildcards(*) to combine folder & file names.

I have the following command to delete folders in Ubuntu

rm -rf dist pkitree srktable cst_sign* cst_encrypt* *.log out

However when I try to do accompany the same in Windows batch like,

rd /s /q dist pkitree srktable cst_sign* cst_encrypt* *.log out 2> NUL

I still get error status and the wildcards are not recognised. Can someone help me achieving this behaviour in Windows as well?
