Is there any chance that I can damage something in my PC by removing programs from control panel? I am still a novice when it comes to PCs, but I realized I have to start maintaining it. After installing so many games and applications, it turns out I have no more space left on my system partition. So I would like to uninstall few things. Anything you should know about it

I think that there is no need for you to worry about it. You cannot damage anything – the only thing you could do is to uninstall something you really need. So, before any of your programs, or any item that is in control panel, be sure what it does. There are for example codec’s listed in control panel, under add remove programs, and if you delete them you won’t be able to play some files. It is the only thing you should worry about, and that you should reconsider before you do something. And the smart thing for you would be to install some of the programs to some partition other than system partition. Games for example, because they can take a lot of space.
