Chief Khalsa Diwan (CKD) Charitable Society today expelled its disgraced president Charanjit Singh Chadha and his son Inderpreet Singh Chadha, who was vice-president of the Sikh body.

Chadha had refused to step down following the allegations of sexual abuse and its viral video.

Of the 15-member office-bearers of the CKD, 11 today held an emergency meeting, led by officiating president Dhanraj Singh. Notably, Chadha’s younger son Harjit Singh Chadha, who is honorary joint secretary, was also present, and is a signatory to the decision.

It was unanimously decided to expel Chadha from post of president and the society’s primary membership.

Similarly, the society also removed his son Inderpreet Singh from the post of vice-president and membership.

Former Congress leader Mandeep Singh Manna sought the intervention of state government in conducting fresh elections of the CKD. He alleged that Chadha had made the Sikh body a personal fiefdom by inducting his family members, relatives and friends in the past 15 years. He claimed that even Dhanraj Singh was also his close aide.

He sought a probe into the utilisation of funds during the construction of school buildings and buying land for new institutions.
