Who is Ponty Chadha??
The liquor baron whose premises had hidden crore of rupees was born in a poor family in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh. Gurdeep Singh Chadha alias Ponty Chadha used to sell snacks with his father in front of a country wine shop. The family’s fortunes started looking up when his father Kulwant Singh Chadha managed to get the licence of the shop.
They now have a bungalow, which was among the premises raided, and a cinema hall in Moradabad. Chadha took his first big leap first when former CM Mulayam Singh Yadav inaugurated his Wave mallcum-multiplex in Lucknow. His government allegedly gave several concessions to Chadha in the project.
But Chadha’s empire saw a spectacular growth after Mayawati handed over licences of ’plum’ regions in UP to him in 2009.
