Sorry if going bit off topic, actually it has been a serious issue for
me as I dont want to use chemical to clean up my pond from leeches. Any
one here can suggest me how to remove Leeches from your pond without
chemicals.

Piece of raw meat on a string. Put it in the pond leave for a short while
and retrieve, remove the leeches (lovely job), and repeat........ .
You may attract other things besides leeches, tadpoles for example, so do
be
careful what you kill.

Why don't the fish eat the leeches? They eat tadpoles don't they?
