New Delhi: Amitabh Kant, who managed diverse assignments during his 45 years in government service, has resigned as G20 Sherpa.

Kant, a retired 1980-batch Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer of Kerala cadre, was appointed as India’s G20 Sherpa in July 2022, months before India assumed the G20 Presidency.

In a LinkedIn post titled ‘My New Journey’ Kant said: “After 45 years of dedicated government service, I have made the decision to embrace new opportunities and move forward in life. I am incredibly thankful to the Prime Minister of India for accepting my resignation as G20 Sherpa and for having given me the opportunity to drive a range of developmental initiatives and contribute to the growth, development, and progress of India.” PTI BKS TRB
