Ramesh Sangha, born on June sixth, nineteen forty-five, is a distinguished Canadian lawyer and former politician. He represented the Brampton Centre riding as a Member of Parliament from two thousand fifteen until two thousand twenty-one. His political journey began with his election in the two thousand fifteen federal election, followed by a successful re-election in two thousand nineteen.
In January of two thousand twenty-one, Sangha faced significant controversy when he was expelled from the Liberal caucus due to allegations he made against several fellow Liberal MPs, claiming their support for the Khalistan movement. The Liberal Party dismissed these allegations as baseless, leading Sangha to serve as an independent member in the House of Commons.
These allegations were publicly voiced during a two thousand nineteen interview with the Punjabi-language channel 5AAB, which sparked a strong response from Mark Holland, the Government Chief Whip. Holland emphasized the party's stance against conspiracy theories and unfounded rhetoric, highlighting the potential dangers of such claims.
Ultimately, Ramesh Sangha chose not to seek re-election in the two thousand twenty-one federal election, marking the end of his term in Parliament.
