55 year old film camera. Use without aperture blades?

Photography Asked by Ishwaran on August 11, 2021

I have a Yashica electro 35, which was inactive for 32 years !. Now I restored the camera perfectly, but There is a big problem (probably a threat ?), rust in 4 aperture blades (out of 5). The rust granules are falling on the rear lens. Can I leave it like this and clean the lens frequently ?. Or shall I remove the Blades permanently ?

Note: The aperture blades are very thin and at a verge of tearing out. even very tiny holes are present.
