I tried formatting in windows, tried to wipe the card in disk manager, third party tools and also tried removing the write protection (which also failed).

Is there any way to wipe the original card or is it a lost cause?
It is just an SD card, so deleting the partitions using Disk Management should work. Or something like SDFormatter. Or just write the image to it. But, if none of them are working, it probably means the card is failing. That would explain the original failure. In this state, I wouldn't put to much more effort into it, and I'm not sure I would trust the card for anything important.
