TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC)-Indian economist Surjit Bhalla resigned from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s economic advisory council effective Dec. 1, a spokesman in Modi’s office said on Tuesday.
News about Bhalla’s resignation comes a day after the governor of India’s central bank, Urjit Patel, quit abruptly after a months-long tussle over policy with the government.

The spokesman said Bhalla planned to join another organisation.
Bhalla was not available for comment.
