Arvind Subramanian cited the circumstances involving Pratap Bhanu Mehta's exit and the fact Ashoka University can no longer provide space for academic expression and freedom.

Noted economist Arvind Subramanian has resigned as professor from Ashoka University, citing the circumstances involving Pratap Bhanu Mehta’s exit and the fact Ashoka, even with its private status and private capital, can no longer provide space for academic expression and freedom.

Subramanian had joined Ashoka University in July last year as a professor in the department of economics. He is also the founding director of the new Ashoka Center for Economic Policy, devoted to researching policy issues related to India and global development.

His resignation, which comes two days after Mehta left, will take effect from the end of this academic year, Subramanian wrote in his letter addressed to the University Vice-Chancellor Malabika Sarkar.
