Haresh Chandra
Haresh Chandra was the husband of Gita Chandra, and father of Rani Chandra. He could be pompous, when he was the new head of Park Vale School. When Clyde and Luke first met him he was cross with thier teacher Mr Cunningham. Rani pretended not to know him as she did not want her friends to know that her father was the Head Teacher. Later when Clyde saw a Clown he did no believe him and thought that he was being silly. The next day he was puzzled as why students where walking out of school with balloons. He later put it down to a prank and was pleased that his daughter was with Luke and Clyde "studying". (SJA: Day of the Clown)
In Secrets of the Stars he was found to be a Taurus like Sarah Jane and was one of the few not hypnotised by Trueman (SJA: Secrets of the Stars)
He also fell victim to the Berserker Pendant twice, once when it was used by his daughter Rani and again by Paul Langer after he stole the item from Sarah Jane Smith's attic. When Rani used it on him he essentially performed for her amusement, but she quickly stopped and had him forget when it began to scare her. When Paul used it on him, he started by jogging on the spot, but was then told to do push ups, which he did. It was this command that almost caused him to die of exhaustion, as no matter what happened around him he refused to stop. (SJA: The Mark of the Berserker)
