There are a few options

1.You can run the following command to remove user
/usr/bin/gpasswd -d sanjeevan project

2. usermod -G sanjeevan `id -Gn sanjeevan| sed 's/project//'| tr -t " " ","`
The above can be done if the user is a member of more than one group and
only needs to be removed from the group "project"

3. Run command vigr
This is again manual editing of /etc/group file, but will also open
/etc/gshadow file to edit once its saved
