lakshmi, Credit to volkotech-solutions Dec 22

For example, delete the list of users present under the manager role using the following snippet

DeleteUser.php

<?php
use  \Drupal\user\Entity\User;

//manager is machine name of role.
$role = 'manager';
$ids = \Drupal::entityQuery('user')
    ->condition('status', 1)
    ->condition('roles', $role)
    ->execute();
//Method 1: To delete multiple users by looping user entities.
$users = User::loadMultiple($ids);
foreach($users as $user) {
    $user->delete();
}
//Method 2: To delete multiple users by storage handler.
$storage_handler = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage('user');
$entities = $storage_handler->loadMultiple($ids);
$storage_handler->delete($entities);
