Does Emacs provide a function to remove all the .elc files from a
directory ?

I don't think it does. If it would I wouldn't see the point.
You just need a shell:
rm *.elc
As easy as that. Anyway if you want you can use shell-command:
M-! rm *.elc

I ended up using
find -name '*.elc' -exec rm {} \;
to remove it from all subdirectories

(FWIW, you said directory, not also subdirs.)
In that case, if you want to do it from Emacs, with Dired,
you can do it by using `R' as one of the `ls' switches
(e.g. `C-u C-x d' then `-alFR'), then `% d \ . e l c $`
to mark *.elc and `x' to delete.

Use `% d \ . e l c $` in Dired to flag the files for deletion.
Then use `x' to delete them.
If you use Dired+ you can also use `* . e l c', then `D'.
The first (`% d') matches file names against a regexp.
The second (`* .') matches file-name extensions.
