On the back of RBI governor Urjit Patel's resignation yesterday, here's another exit.

Eminent economist and columnist Surjit Bhalla on Tuesday said that he had resigned as part-time member of Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM) on December 1. "I resigned as part-time member of PMEAC on December 1," Bhalla said on Twitter. The EAC- PM is headed by Niti Aayog member Bibek Debroy. Economists Rathin Roy, Ashima Goyal and Shamika Ravi are other part-time members.
