  I had a non-functional blog ritikaupadhyay.wordpress.com.
  I wish to change my current blog url to ritikaupadhyay.wordpress.com.

  I deleted my blog url; turns out it can never be used again!!
  Please help: I JUST deleted it. Is there a way it can be undone, please?
  I only want to utilise it as a new blog url :(
  Please :(

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Note that URLs are not recycled here. That’s why it takes ignoring 3 warnings and clicking a verififcation link in an email to delete a blog.

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain vis a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.

  It is a major error on my part, I’m aware, it’s just I am extremely short of time and an absolute klutz.
  I plan to upgrade that url in future; can nothing be done?

  No, nothing can be done to restore deleted URLs.
